Comprehensive Climbers Ranking

On average right, not peaks?

Yes, these are weighted averages of their 10 best performances, but all my numbers (also the single climb performances in the OP) can be compared the same way to see the difference in w/kg. I already mentioned it somewhere before, but the difference between Pogacar and Evenepoel has consistently been around 0.4 w/kg since 2024 when both were in shape and went all out.

He probably doesn't show up in the dataset but did Gilbert really become that much worse on hills after 2011?

I don't have Gilbert in my dataset. The Cauberg is really too short to anlyze with my method. But he could not repeat his success in the Ardennes after 2011, so I assume he got worse. I think he also was substantially heavier in some springs in order to compete in the cobble classics.

Maybe just in 2024. In 2025, I don't believe Remco has a single performance "just" 0.4 w/kg lower than Pogacar's performance.
