Anyone have suggestions/personal experiences with a closed-back style aerobar pad? I'm over the stock speed concept ones and looking to upgrade. The TriRig ones look awfully large, but the Revolvers look like what I'm after.

Has anyone tried the closed-back style and hated them?

I tried my the TriRig closed backs and I didn’t notice any additional comfort over my 51 speedshop cups. Like you said the tririg’s are quite large and bit heavy. I sold them and continue to run the 51ss cups on my sc.

I have the Revolver ergo mantis xl cups with a 15 degree wedge underneath. I like having a back to the cup so I never feel like I'm slipping off the back. The back is also a nice reminder to "relax" into your position.
