They are really good bars. They’re measured at the hoods, like normal. A 46 measures 46cm wide at the hoods.
Very comfortable handle bar with a flattened portion on the top of the bar.
I was really looking forward to these bars, but I should have done more research. The top is a little too rounded for my comfort. The big thing, though, is that the length of the bar is measured to the bar ends, not to the hoods. A 42 was WAY too short up top. Had to return them.
