FORCE XC COMPETITION LINE

Thanks to GUM-X3D technology which is a combination of three special rubbers: an outer traction compound, a Race Compound base layer and a special side grip compound

Tough enough for the meanest streets.

The most agile cross-country tire for a competition use

As the original urban assault tire, the Maxxis Hookworm is no stranger to the mean streets. The bead-to-bead tread design provides durability and traction in harsh environments. The Hookworm is also a great solution for cargo bikes, pedicabs, or any application where a tough tire is needed.
