    I’m keen to replace my bars as they feel a bit cramped. They’re the OEM jobs that came with my Giant Defy. They’re 44cm c-c and ergo shaped, but that’s all I know about them.

    As I’m larger than the average cyclist (6’5″, 115kg), I’m guessing that there aren’t too many bars to fit, but your suggestions would be most welcome.

    46cm is as much width as you’re likely to get i think. the salsas’ll give you a bit of extra space and the ergo drops are good, cheap and all
