Holy crap man! those are some blades! Do they slow down the mower though? I ran the gator blades on my 60" exmark and the gator blades slowed it down a little.

I run two blades on each spindle. I'd like to try these out but I need 18" blades.

Edit - Oh, I see the tri-blades come in 18". Hmm. I may have to try a set. Interesting.

impossible to keep balanced. A blade will suck down your power very quickly and cause vibration if you do not balance them.

Wow, the quad blade! Very interesting. I'd be worried about balancing them too!

Why would these blades be harder to balance than regular blades? I'm not getting it.

They would slow the blade speed down and also cause your mower to work harder to run them, burning more fuel.

Only if they are specifically heavier that the blade already on there. I run two blades per spindle now. It does slow down things a bit but I never have to double cut so it saves me time and gas in that respect. I think I will try the tri-blades to see how they work.
