I'm planning on buying some 3T Morphe bars as I have small hands and they were recommended on URC (and Simon and Myra's website)as being good for smaller hands. My next question is when measuring them where are they measured ?? I know 3T bars are measured from the outside edge to outside edge but is this across the top of the bar or across the drop part ?? My current bars measure 42 cm across the top and 44cm across the drops and I'm happy with the width so I'm trying to work out what size to order. Anybody have any idea ?

They're measured bar end to bar end. That may or may not coincide with other parts of the bars. I have got Morphes but would have to remove tape and levers to check.

I have a pair of these that where specified as 42cm and they measure 42cm across the drops and about 41cm across the tops. So in that case it looks like you need the 44cm size.
Hope this helps.

PS I can recommend them as well. Why more bars are not built this way I do not know.
