<p>Next string I'd recommend would be Solinco Tour Bite at 54. Glad you liked Pro Line 2. If you want a flatter hitting string, Tecnifibre Red Code at the tension 57 you use.</p>

<p>Tim, played with the pro line 2 last night and love how they played. I strung a full bed at 57 and the feeling was amazing! I was able to get tons of spin, plenty of power and great feel when at the net. Thanks for the recommendation!!</p>

<p>I guess that is a yes. It was just the first time I had to adjust my clamps and I made it too tight at first bc I turned the knob the wrong way. Still learning this stringing machine.</p>

<p>I strung a racket with the pro line 2 yesterday evening and man that was a really stiff string to work with. It took me about an extra ten minutes longer than usually. I'm looking forward to hitting with it this evening. I did notice that their 17g string was thicker than Gosen's. Is that a common thing between different manufacturers?</p>

<p>Ah, I see. I felt the regular Blue was a bit too muted. Like it wanted to ping or ring, but stayed muted instead.</p>

<p>Cyclone is terribly brittle. The only gauge I like of that is 18 gauge, and even then, I'd have to break it in a great deal.</p>
<p>Haven't tried Big Hitter Blue Rough, only the smooth. The smooth was okay, but not very high performing.</p>

<p>Bhbr and bhb7 are great winter strings. Soon as the temp started heating up the balls went sailing. Volkl cyclone was to stiff for me during the winter and what do you know? They have been perfect as temperatures have been rising.</p>

<p>Yes, Tour Bite has a more metallic feel closer to ALU. The BHB7 and Solinco Barb Wire have that hard plastic type construction.</p>
