Sure this has been asked before but here goes.

Bought some cheap Pikes with 150mm travel but feels a bit worse on climbs. Could reduce the travel by 10 or 20mm but could I get almost the same effect by fitting a negative rise stem? Already using a zero rise stem with flat bar and no spacers

Bend your elbows a bit more? Unless you want it lower for the downs too.
