Stihl Light 04 Bars

[Bostonstrongboy1965]

I was debating on where to post this....
I have seen the Light 04 bars online. Does anyone have hands on experience with them? Are they avail in US? I have spoken to a half dozen dealers who have never heard of them?
I think that the lengths are limited to 14, 16, 18.
Thanks guys!

I was curious if these were gonna be part of the new "narrow kerf" trend and only be offered in 50 gauge. I hope they make them in 63 gauge...we'll see I guess.

In chatting this up, I am getting the sense they are only avail in Europe.

They are in the 2021 US catalog.

Yes, I saw that. But I have yet to find a dealer who says they are available. They are telling me that they cannot get them at all and don't know why.

Here is a video, from 12.58 , on it states the 04 turned out to he more durable than
the x-cut or speed cut bars in their test, you also get a full chizzel with no added bumpers
titled RS PRO .325 x .50 and a similar chain in cemi chizzel titled the RM PRO, I think the
RS Pro is the only narrow kerf full chizzel with no added safety bumpers made.
