Don’t forget to sit up a bit when climbing. Open hip angle gives more power. It’s less aero but at climbing speeds that is not a major issue.

It drives me nuts when I see someone trying to close a gap on a climb all bent over/aero. That helps at high speed because aero but power drops a bit because of closed hip angle.
