Finally got a 20" SpeedCut bar for my Husqvarna 353
Compared the weight with the OEM bar: saves 5 ounces, which is about 18%:
Bar groove is slightly longer, and has angled oil holes, vs the slightly larger diameter, conventional holes on the Husky bar.
The bar has an unusual, dull, almost rough finish. Have to mount it on the saw and see how it affects the overall balance and compare flexibility - my only real concern with narrow kerf bars.
