I have the Maes Parallel on one of my two main bikes and the B135 on a single speed that I dont ride much. These bars are very different. The B 135 is probably closer to the RH Randonneur bars with the upsweep of the tops, but the reach is less. They do share the parallel shallow drops though. With the angle of the bars and hood position you can make the effective reach more or less. With parallel drops, you can angle them up a bit and still have nice in the drops position. With the Maes especially you still have lots of room on the ramps. Also with the long reach of the Maes, whether you want hoods or ramp (or tops) as your "normal" position will require a different stem length.
