3T Ergonova bars 44cm question

I just got some 3T Ergonova bars size 44cm, they seem very narrow for 44cm so I measured them and only at the very ends they are 44cm apart, but on the hoods it's just about 41.5cm.
Just wanted to see if anyone else has a set and if so is this correct for size 44 or if I have accidently been sent size 42 maybe?
Cheers

Just checked for you.... 41.5 c/c but 44 o/o on the hoods and 46 o/o on the drops.
3T must measure to the outsideof the bar rather than the centre.0 -
Great, thanks for that Bozman. Good to know there's no mistake and I shall see how I get on with them I guess in that case0

Yup, I have a set of these in 42 but they are about 40 just behind the hoods. They get wider as they go down.
I moved from a more standard set of 42cm bars but I can't say I noticed much difference in use. Because they get wider as they go down, they are almost 41 at the point where the levers are attached. I thought about going for the 44 but I think they would have been too wide for me in the drops.
Slightly narrower = slightly more aero I guess...0 -
No problem. My bars and arx stem are sitting on a shelf in the garage, i just didn't get on with them, but i seem to be the exception to the rule because they're well rated and widely used.0
