As the original urban assault tire, Maxxis designed the Hookworm to take the abuses of the most aggressive street riders. Bead-to-bead tread provides durability and traction whether you're dropping staircases, grinding rails or riding in your local skate park. The Hookworm is available in an array of sizes for a variety of applications.

The most important part of a tire is arguably the rubber compound used within the tread and with Maxxis's Single Compound you get one compound throughout the tread for longevity and performance. 

Features:

  • Extreme durability for urban assault, park riding, commuting, etc. 
  • Grooved slick tread design
  • Wrap around tread pattern for great cornering grip on pavement

Feels slightly tougher feel than Grifter another great tire. Rides fine. Hopefully less flats on Seattle's unpredictable roadways and unmaintained bike lanes.
