Smooth poly similar to tour bite?

[jk175d]

I keep coming back to Solinco Tour Bite as my poly of choice. I use it in the mains with a syn-gut cross, and so far it has been my favorite cross with nat-gut mains. However the square edges of the tour bite were cutting through the gut a little too quickly. So now I'm looking for a smooth poly string to use as crosses with the gut that will have similar feel and playing characteristics as Tour Bite. There are SOOOO many strings out there, can anyone help me narrow it down? I'm not asking for everyone's favorite poly, I'm asking specifically for a smooth poly that feels like tour bite. Thanks. All 17 guage for me by the way.

I haven't used it, but I hear that Solinco Revolution is similar to Tourbite without the edges. Good power, nice pocketing and good tension maintenance. Might want to try it out since you're already using the brand.

Yes, Revolution is shaped, but the edges aren't that pronounced.

I'll probably give revolution a try. I may have my answer though, I tried WC Silverstring (17g) in the cross with gut tonight and the combo felt quite like the gut/TB hybrid. I'll have to see how it feels after a few more times out. But I'm optimistic.
