Because Steve it doesn't spend all day in a log!

lol... what difference does balance make when your saw spends all day in a log? if I had to walk 20m between every cut, id probably feel different......

24-25" would be the perfect size for a 372/2171, as it would with any 70cc saw.

For what use is it perfect? :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:
Guess I'm good w/ not being a real man, and really like the fact that the 18" bar doesn't have to spend very long in the cut. If you like the speed of a 70cc saw wearing 24" bar....you should try an 18" bar, now she's really got some giddyup.
I do have a 20/28 and 36" bar for the 066...do I get some manhood back w/ that?
I use a 32" with a 8tooth sprocket on mine with semi skip chain. Although, it is not your normal 372xpw either.:monkey:
I'm curious, now... I understand using a shorter bar because of the weight, but the 372 is certainly enough power to run a 24" b/c...
So if I'm cutting an 18" diameter log with my 24" b/c and you are with your 18" b/c, the only additional resistance my saw has to overcome is the extra friction of the longer bar and chain, which in my estimation, is very minimal compared to the power output of the saw at WOT.
The only other thing it would change is there's more mass to accelerate with the 24" chain so it might take a little longer to get to WOT, but how much more could the 24" chain weigh... 30% at most? 30% of a chain that probably weighs less than a pound? Is that noticeable at all either?
Not trying to sound like an ass... just thinking out loud.
