Aftermarket wrap handlebars

[Ryan Browne]

I'm wondering if anyone's tried the 3/4 wrap bars for the 440/460 Stihl saws that are on eBay.

Specifically this one:

Or this one:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/Wrap-Around-H...3D322232283173&_trksid=p2056116.c100408.m2460

The first one is about $10 cheaper. Looks like both ship directly from Asia. I'd like to put a 3/4 or full wrap on my 460, but I'm not interested in paying OEM prices. I try not to send my money to China very often, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, I guess.

Anyway, if anyone's tried one, I'd love to hear about it. I won't be using this saw professionally, so it won't see daily abuse.

Thanks

I have one for a 1122 that works fine for wood cutting,cookies and making it hard to change your bar but wouldn't last a day in the log woods.

They both look the same to me and probably are being they come from China, id go witht the cheaper one. You might hate them after you install them, so why pay extra.
