Can Someone w/ the Vision Tech Base Bar Measure For Me?

I’m still struggling to find a base bar that will allow enough forward reach when not on the aero bars. Can someone w/ the Vision Tech base bar measure the distance from the center of the stem to the farthest tip of the side grip? In other words, how far forward my hands could be from the center of the stem (i.e., back of the stem cap).

Thanks!

Looks just shy of 18cm, but it was hard to tell with my bike hanging upside down…

FWIW, the reach is longer than it was on my Stratos base bars.

Damn! Just about the same as my Hed carbon bar, and longer than the Easton carbon. I’m having a tough time getting the front end right – need to get longer and lower on the base bar, yet not move the elbow pads any further forward.

Thanks for measuring.
