The 46cm width versions.

is 46cm them width of the top of the bars or from wing tip to wing tip (for want of a better phrase!)

Mine measure 46cm across the flat top and 65cm from end to end.

Yes, 46 is rather misleading - I believe it's supposed to be across the hoods centre to centre.

Be carefull on tight singletrack the first time you use them.
Kept catching the ends on trees with mine. 😆

Great bars, on both my cross check and Fargo.
It's centre to centre across the hoods.
Also work well with gel inserts, made from genuine Pamela andersons.

Work well when set higher than you think is right, this puts the drops in a usable all the time position.
I am doing complete fargos at £300 off right now... But be quick

Another recommendation for the Woodchippers. I fitted them to the Amazon for off-road work but I love them so much they've stayed on for touring too. The whole bike feels more stable on fast, downhill corners, especially when panniers etc might have otherwise upset the handling a little.
