I saw article about Shimano releasing new Pro Vibe Superlight bar

https://cyclingtips.com/2022/09/pro-sup ... -and-stem/

153g in size 38, internal routing, more traditional shape with 130mm drop
Ticks all the boxes for me!

I don’t see it being available anywhere yet but thinking about getting one for next season.
Is there anything else on the market right now that is:
-Available in 38cm width
-Round, not aero
-has internal cable routing
-very light
?

Not internal routing.

I believe Darimo Nexum (the combo bar) is the only lightweight internal routing available, but it has a very low max weight limit!! Which makes the new Pro bar very unique

Ritchey Superlogic supports fully internal routing but only comes as narrow as 40cm.

Low weight limit and judging by Darimo thread QA and customer support looks pretty bad too! New Shimano bar rivals all those boutique brands in weight and backs it up with big brand QA and warranty
