I haven't heard of those before. My instant thoughts are that I'd rather have a Twisted engineering handlebar.
And I do

Jokes aside, if you feel the need for some flexibility, there are several options. Damping mounts like the PHDS systems often used on the orange bikes, Flexx bars, TE, and now Mako (another sort of damping mounts / clamps).
Dirt rider is quite pleased, I see: https://www.dirtrider.com/three-thin...-mounts-review

I have ended up with the TE bars. I have used them for at least four years (>300 hours) and am very pleased. I haven't felt the urge to try something else. However, the Enduro FIM rules have something against composite bars. So if you are competing, I guess Mako is a safer bet.
