Turn your mountain bike into an urban assault machine. The Hookworms run a dual ply downhill spec sidewall for ultimate flat protection - Perfect for hitting stair gaps! If you want an indestructible commuter tyre the Hook Worm is a great. With plenty of grip and a wide 2.5 casing, the Hook Worm will let you charge hard wherever you are in the city. These tip the scales at 1125g. Suitable for front or rear use. Please note - Wire bead tyres are sent rolled up to minimise shipping costs. The wires in the beads shouldn't get bent during this process, however, if they arrive with a bend, just bend them back til they are straight. It won't affect the performance of the tyre at all.
