Pipeliner has a good hookup for them.
But I read someone they have an Ebay store now too.. Good bars but pricey

They are very nice bars I've got a couple and like them a lot. Not quite as stiff as a Stihl but not nearly as heavy either. 
I think they are on backorder right now, I'll look when I go in on Friday. If you can't find one from a sponsor here let me know and I'll try to hook you up.

I've got a 20" on my 361 and a 28" on 460. I love them. I'd like to get a 32" for my 066BB. I've never had one of the light weight Oregon bars, but I hear these are stiffer. The only complaint I've had is that the 20" needs a 71DL chain if it's stetched at all.

Those look like pretty nice bars. Do you know how many links the 24" ones take is it 84 links or not? Are they the same as total bars ?I've got a 20" on my 361 and a 28" on 460. I love them.

Yep the 24" bars are 84 links.
And brad is right the 20" bar really needs a 71 link chain, but an 8-pin helps take up some of the slack.

I am still running a 7-pin on the 361. It'll pull the 8 but isn't any faster, actually a tick slower. I don't recall the count on the 28" though.

Thanks Brad.
I'll look when I get there tomorrow but I doubt he'll have a 16" .325 may have it in 3/8's, I'll let you know.
Could someone tell me if this would work with my CubCadet cs 5018? And which will work for my 5100? I like those suckers(beer goggles)-dave-:drool:http://cgi.ebay.com/Sugihara-chains...7310492QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
I'm drunk and want to buy something

8-pin/15" bar with 36RSC, and about 14300rpm WOT works great for limbing and bucking about 12" and less here (stock Euro version).

stupid question.
im running a 372. is the chain adjuster "longer" than on a stihl? if i get a 20" 3/8 bar, am i going to have to shorten my chains? in other words will it work better, or worse in my case?
I can't answer the question in the previous post. I just ordered a 32"er last night for the 066. It should balance a lot nicer than the 36" ES that was on it.
