I used the Tour Bite Soft in the mains at 24 kg and the Solinco Vanquish 1.30 in the crosses at 22.5 kg.
Played for 5 hours indoors, singles and doubles, with various types of balls.
I had good spin potential and power. However I would string the Vanquish a bit tighter next time (both strings at 24 kg). |

No problems during stringing (ATW).
Played for 4 hours indoors on carpet with Wilson Tour Clay Germany balls.
Before this I tried the Gamma Moto which I liked much better. The iO is a solid string but nothing special. |

The string is soft and stretchy during stringing. Strung ATW.
Played for 4 hours indoors on carpet with Wilson Tour Clay Germany balls.
Good string for players who do not hit very aggressively (power, spin). |

Played the test string for 2 hours indoors on carpet.
I was positively surprised by this string, which definitely lives up to the Yonex Poly Tour Pro. The YPTP provides a bit more power and the Moto provides a bit better spin. |

Solid string which did not disappoint me but neither fascinated me. I think it could be a good fit for players who don't play frequently and play their string until it snaps. |

Very easy to string.
Played for 3 hours indoors on carpet.
The string plays nice and solid, but not better than Head Rip Control or even Tecnifibre X-One Biphase. |

| Played indoors. No problems during stringing (one piece around the world). The X.Code is the best string I've tried so far! |

| Good string, but in 1.20 mm it is not suitable for heavy strokes because it will break very soon. |

| From my point of view this string is better than Head Rip Control and Wilson NXT, at a much lower price. Great string especially if you have a sensitive arm and don't have a spin-based game. |
