The Kocevlo and Ullicyc are the same bar and they are both copies of The One Pro with a different clamp design, but the stem and bars are the same. I bought both The One Pro and Kocevlo bars and they are identical apart from the steerer clamp. The One Pro were about 25g lighter (370g vs 395g); whether that's the clamp design (likely) or a different carbon layup, I couldn't tell any difference between the two. In the end, I went with the Kocevlo due to being half the price. They've been on my bike since May (you can search my posts) and I've raced them a dozen times or so. I like them and would buy again. They're plenty stiff for me and I'm around 85kg and can put out 1600W peak in a sprint. No flex I can feel. Finish is on par for AliEx bars and I don't have any safety concerns even at my weight. I ran mech 1x and now Di2, no issues with cable routing apart from the usual annoyances of fully internal bars. Couldn't tell you if they could handle 2x mech but they look to have ample room albeit a little tight.
For my main road bike, I have the Black Inc. copies. I paid around $80 and honestly, these are my favorite bars ever. They weigh 335g for 120/40 so not the lightest by any means. But they are a great bar. They have a little groove on the underside so I don't route internally but the cables remain mostly hidden. They aren't as flat on the tops but have an oval shape which I find super comfy riding on the tops and I wrap all the way to the stem. Stiff enough for my tastes as well. My only complain is the weight as I was looking to save grams, but even at that weight I haven't found a replacement that's better so they've been on for close to 2 years now.

I'm looking for one as well, with a longer reach. 130mm stem length with 75mm bars is what I'm after.
Only one I found so far was this:

Did anyone tried those MCELO handlebars? I am looking for something with -17 degree stem to lower my stack on a Gravel bike. The seller told me that this one is -16. But you know don't know if can be trusted. On the auction of the mcelo frame on the bike pictures it does not look that steep but on drawings it says - 16. Funny that they don't inlcude those drawings with angle on handlebar auction.

Would be cool if someone here used it and can tell something about them.

I have the Ryet ones, both integrated with one being gravel the other road. Pretty good so far with no issues.
