Great power, decent feel and still playing solid after 8 hours of competitive play. I play 4.0-4.5 and will probably keep with this string for awhile. Review: Good spin and good power. - Good spin and good power. It is more flexible than Yonex spin, and offers similar control/spin. Recommended. ## Features - Gauge: 17 (1.20mm) - Length: 40 feet (12.2m) - Construction: Co-polyester - Color: Silver ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003TWFGHS | | Best Sellers Rank | #45,422 in Sporting Goods ( See Top 100 in Sporting Goods ) #105 in Racket Strings | | Brand | Solinco | | Brand Name | Solinco | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 317 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00812753010010 | | Grip Size | 17G | | Grip size | 17G | | Included Components | Tour Bite Tennis String Silver | | Item Weight | 0.02 Grams | | Item weight | 0.02 Grams | | Manufacturer | Solinco | | Material | Synthetic | | Material Type | Synthetic | | Size | Set 17G (1.20mm) | | Sport | Tennis | | Sport Racket String Installation | Unstrung | | Sport Type | Tennis | | UPC | 812753010010 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Solinco - **Grip size:** 17G - **Material:** Synthetic - **Size:** Set 17G (1.20mm) - **Sport:** Tennis ## Images ![Tour Bite String Set - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61o7cHkIMGL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what's the recommended tension? Thx** A: Strings typically do not have a recommend tension range, as that is determined by the racquet you are putting them in. Also, polyester strings such as this should be strung 10% lower than if you're coming from a syn gut or multifilament string. Be sure to shop Tennis Express for all your tennis needs. **Q: What's the difference between 16G and 16L?** A: Hello, 16G is 16 Gauge and is 1.3 MM thick. 16L is 16L Gauge and is 1.25 MM Thick. The 16L Gauge string is VERY slightly thinner (.05MM) Then it goes to 17 Gauge which is 1.2MM . The thinner the string the better the play because you will have better feel of the ball. However, the thinner the string the easier it is to break ir. **Q: is this the square shape or diamond?** A: Tout Bite is square. Do not confuse with Solinco Diamond Rough. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great 19g string *by R***. on 4 November 2015* I string this on my Wilson Pro Staff 97 at 60 pounds. Great power, decent feel and still playing solid after 8 hours of competitive play. I play 4.0-4.5 and will probably keep with this string for awhile. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good spin and good power. *by S***O on 1 October 2018* Good spin and good power. It is more flexible than Yonex spin, and offers similar control/spin. Recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love this stuff in my Ezone *by S***T on 31 August 2024* Upgraded to a couple of Ezone 98's and was recommended this string by a friends I was concerned that hyper-g may be a bit too powerful. As they say, the rest is history. The two work really well together for me, I have the right amount of power and these strings offer more bite than hyper-g for me. I get silly amounts of top and slice on my serve and also have the option of hitting a rather speedy flat one to keep opponents guessing. Ground strokes have a lot of feel and the ball seems to drop in late making for great deep shots. Slices are brutal and I can either keep the ball low or move it silly amounts to give an effective approach where my opponent has to keep an eye on the ball and not see me lumbering up to the net. Which leads to volleys.... Great feel and slice. I can either position the ball where I want or play a drop with a nice little spin to turn a bit or even pop back a little way. I'm sure it won't be every ones cup of tea but for me its a perfect match to the Ezones and I always feel confident that the racquets will do what I want (If I my technique allows me of course!) ## Frequently Bought Together - Solinco Tour Bite - Soilnco Hyper-G Heaven High Spin Poly String - 40 Foot Pack - Choice of All Gauges - Confidential Tennis String --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/278348291-tour-bite-string-set](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/278348291-tour-bite-string-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-07-02*
