Awesome, thanks! Looks like I’ll be going with the RXL bars. Maybe the aero tops instead because when I climb, I like to change hand positions from time to time.

Oh, I forgot to comment that I'm looking for some lightweight bar tape (haha, weight weenie goals). Anyone know any tried? Thanks in advance!

I'm building a lightweight climbing bicycle (the Aethos) and has anyone tried those lightweight carbon handlebars, those that weigh <200g? Especially the Kocelvo 150g bars. The ones I'm looking at currently is this Ryet brand: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001453428211.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.0.0.3515V7eVV7eVrP&mp=1. I've seen some topics discussed on how some lightweight handlebars are super flexy and have snapped for slightly heavier riders, but I weigh 60kg so I'm not sure if I should risk buying those flexy bars. Mostly looking for any firsthand inputs & recommendations.

Also looking for a pair of climbing wheels ideally 38 - 45mm, somewhere in the $1,400 CAD range.

How are the Easedon climbing wheelset? Looking at this brand too because I'm building up a lightweight Aethos.
