Did you like it, would you do it again, etc.
ETA: I looked closer, and my current set is 46 (not 44 as noted above).
Oops, I was going to add that I switched from a 42cm to a 46cm handlebar a few years ago and would do it again in a heartbeat. I'm 6'2", reasonably broad in the shoulders, and I find it definitely more comfortable. I'm a fan of that width, definitely.
