^ agree.
And if you look at the way Contador "dances" on the pedals whilst climbing, its a way of compensating for a lighter body weight. In a smooth, rythmical (clenbuterol fuelled) way, he utilises his body weight to add an extra kick to his pedal stroke, which makes him an excellent, short burst hill accelerator.
