Maxxis Hookworm SC Tire – 26 × 2.5 | Wire Bead
The Maxxis Hookworm SC 26 × 2.5 is a high-volume, smooth urban tire built for durability, stability, and predictable grip on pavement and concrete.
Its signature urban-assault slick profile delivers consistent contact with the ground and low rolling resistance, making it well suited for city riding, street-focused hardtails, and BMX-influenced builds. The generous 2.5" air volume adds cushioning and control, helping absorb impacts from curb drops, stair sets, and rough urban surfaces.
