Does anyone know of any road bars that are available in a 46cm c-c width? I have very wide shoulders and find the current bars on my Canyon to be very restrictive at 42cm.

If you can find them still,salsa bell laps (and they flare to 52cm at the drops).

Any 46 I've seen has been measured outside to outside.

42s will feel significantly wider OP.

Geoffj, I could well be interested. Do you have any pics? Are they 31.8 diameter?

Cynic-al, I have 42s on my other bike and tbh they are too narrow as well, I just about tolerate it, but definitely need wider.

Oops I meant 44s.

I might try 46 c-c if it exists in a decent shape.

LeMond bikes came with wide bars, my 56cm Chambery came with Bontrager 46 c-c, I changed for 42s and sold the 46s.

Smog they are oversize. They are on a bike at the moment, but I could do a couple of pictures tomorrow.
