The OneUp will work with any bar but does require threading your steerer or using their stem, which is definitely the lesser of the two options. The OneUp is ideal for racing as the tool is very fast to access and use.
The EnCase does limit bar choice a bit but doesn’t require any mods and I feel it’s a nicer tool to use. It is slower to pull it, unwrap it, and select a bit so not as useful against the clock.
I don’t race and I’m a tool nut so my choice is obvious. I’ve alluded to it already in the comments and I’ll have a DIY Colab piece coming soon with photos, but I’m carrying the EnCase differently than spec.
