The Big Ring Attitude

but that's what i dont get, i reckon i can go faster on the flat pushing 60gi than when i'm pushing 75, which made me think i was better suited to spinning rather than pushing a bigger gear. that said it could be due to bad pedaling technique meaning i'm wasting too much energy at a higher cadence when climbing.

i have no idea though.

I don't understand that, either, then. You might need to get an expert to take a look at your riding.
