The main aspect is lining up and grabbing onto the "rope", once that occurs a rs550, BAG, rs775, 775pro, Mini-CIM or a CIM can complete the climb in a reasonably small period of time( probably best to avoid AM PG's, Snow-Blowers or Automotive motors if you want a fast and reliable climb) Geared correctly a single 775pro or CIM can easily lift a 154lb robot 5ft in 5 seconds.

The Linear Mechanism/motion tab in the JVN calculator is a pretty easy way to estimate speeds and gearing necessary for a given motor:
