S-works aerofly vias handlebar

Hello, does anyone know if a S-WORKS AEROFLY VIAS HANDLEBAR can be ordered from Specialized and will this handlebar work with a standard 31.8 stem?
I wanted to lower my stack height while at the sametime have the handlebar at my current height and this "gull wing" bar seems to be exactly what i was looking for!

If you have one for sale im looking for a 44 width, thank you!

Not much different than other bars available, look at 3T they have some very similar.

I'm guessing by his description, he wants the rise. They look to be 31.8 but I don't know that.

I haven't seen them selling the Vias bits anywhere but on the Venge they came on. You might have to search eBay for takeoffs. I was able to score a limited Silver S-Works Romin for my Moots when a local shop took one off an S-Works they had received and built for a well-known Moto-GP rider. I've never seen it offered anywhere else.

I just heard an employee say that all sizes of vias bars are in stock. I will shoot him a message and ask about diameter.

Edit: So here is the skinny. They are 31.8mm but they are made specifically for that stem and it's not advised to use them with a standard stem.

I was not told this part, but it wouldn't surprise me if they strengthened the area at the edges of that crazy wide stem and a standard one would put the clamping force in the wrong place.
