Open Trap Bar. Upper and Lower are the same diameter - correct. I am just saying, compared to a straight bar bell, its is more narrow (25mm diameter vs 28mm). I think its so narrow that is causing less Grip issues for me, but more straight pain on my palm/hand because the smaller diameter grip.

It looks like Bells of Stell Hex grip diameter is 25mm. Normal Barbell is closer to 28mm.

Honestly may be less of an issue with diameter and maybe just pushing the weight I am noticing it more?

I understand. Try what I mentioned above and it will help but sounds like something your hands will have to adapt to. Chalk, if allowed, will help keep things locked down.

I've got baby fingers so I welcome the smaller diameter bars
