Given it’s a passion of mine I’ve tried all those combos (run CushCore, plus tires, more sweep, push-on grips, Flexx bar) and the Rev grips are definitely doing something different than bar sweep.
As with the major underlying theme of the article - if you don’t need them great, but if you do need them they’re brilliant. I think there are some solid comments here (above) from people who do need/love them and as I noted in the article I know a few folks who work(ed) with their hands who basically can’t ride without them.
Keep an open mind. There may come a day that micro-suspension products keep you riding too.
