From memory I think it's posted somewhere in these forums somewhere that the GB 3d printed titanium bars were 26??cm wide
There's a heap of speculation around as to why the bars are getting narrower. The only sciency/physiological explanation I've seen is that the concept is to bring the hands on or closer to the plane between the shoulders and feet. That then reduces the sway of the bike.
