If want to

We may climb to the top and we can if want to.

Is the sentence above grammatical? Can the pronoun "we" be omitted in the subordinate if-clause?

  

Top answer

The following would be okay: We may climb to the top and we can if we want to. We may climb to the top and can if we want to. But the sentence is unusual.
