Review on ๐Ÿšฒ MAXXIS Hookworm 20x1.95 Wire Clincher Tire - Single - Black by Adam Price

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It rolls well, there are no flats yet. To edit! Over 10 months and thousands of miles later it's still rolling solid

Featuring Maxxis Hookworms on a horizontal Greenspeed powerful electric tricycle. Runs well at 30+km/h. Seems well balanced and fits well, rolls easily. Durability and puncture resistance will show over time. My other hang glider has Schwalbe E-Bike Speed tires (capable of 50km/h) and they seem to ride the same. The difference is that Schwalbe tires have reflective sidewalls and offer maximum puncture protection. I can update after long testing. Here is my update. I didn't even have to inflate them with Fenix tubes. I can hardly believe it because my inner tubes and Schwalbe tires have to be refilled regularly. Also in contrast to my expensive Schwalbe tubes and tires. I had NO apartments this year. NO. I don't see any noticeable wear on them after a few thousand miles, and I corner hard enough to slip on them a bit. They can handle normal speeds of 30+ mph, and I toss my trike around like a drift cart. Now I know why some recumbent kites have them. they just work. I did not roll test or compare their maximum cornering ability to my Schwalbe E-Bike 50 km/h tires. but I'm not concerned about shaving a few seconds off travel time instead of spending time renovating roadside apartments like I used to. Highly recommended!
