2260 = 560xp and 2258 = 555 from what I hear.

Those look much nicer than the 560 and 562 to me.

I prefer that straight handle for most use. When limbing a lot the angle is a little better.

The difference in felling and bucking is minor, but it is a big issue for limbing, imo!   ;)

Most hardwood in my part of the country doesn't have a lot of little limbs so the handle doesn't really matter as much. Much of the limbing is actually bucking smaller wood. Anything under 3" is trash and left to be pushed up by the tractor or dragged into a pile to burn later.

Doesn't look like we are going to see these saws this year here in the US. My rep told me that the 2156/2159 are going to be in production "through the fall". And there's never any model overlap with those guys, so the 2258/2260 won't appear until the old models are gone.

No big deal for me really. This size saw has never been a big seller as most guys in my area don't see a need for anything in between the 2153/346 and 2172/372. But if the 2153 hangs around for a while after the 346 is replaced by the 550XP that might not be such a bad thing, as the 346 is always my #1 or #2 seller every year. But............ I'm told the 550 has more power and less weight than the 346.  8)
