Bars are as personal as saddles, but I personally like slightly wider drop bars on a bike that I will ride off road.
For me, this is still quite narrow: 42 cm measured at the hoods. (Is this the conventional way to measure them? They're 44 at the middle of the hooks. Either way works of course, but I assume that the former is the convention) compared to ~38 for my road bars, but the additional width is noticeable and appreciated off road. (I tried 46 and found them too wide.) My typical frame size is 58 c-c and I have a somewhat narrow build. If you are bigger, go wider as comfort dictates.
