## Questions & Answers

**Q: what the weight is of 26x2.5? thanks!**
A: 2.49 lbs. Just weighed one on my digital scale

**Q: I have 3.50 inches total in between my forks at the top would this tire fit?**
A: Yes it should fit. For me the problem fitting high volume tires is always the narrowing of the chain stays at the bottom bracket. If you are using these on a bike with horizontal dropouts the you can just add chain links. I have had these on my single speed 26” wheel mountain bike and a 24” wheel BMX cruiser. They are great tires in the woods and on pavement - sort of made me rethink the need for knobby tires in many circumstances.

**Q: I have a 29x2.20˝ front, 29x2.00˝ rear. Trek Marlin 5. I'm just worried the wider hookworm will rub against the frame/shocks?**
A: they should fit.
These hookworms fit on my Trek Marlin 7, which had the same Bontrager 29x2.00" front & 29x2.20" rear tires.... i left a review with pictures

**Q: Should the tires be on a certain rotation direction? I noticed I installed the two differently based on the logo that is only on one sidewall.**
A: My tires had the same logo/branding on both sides of the tire. I don't thing there is any specific need to install for rotational direction. I imagine if there was there would be a note on  the tire itself similar to what is done with automotive tires.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unbeatable street tire
*by  on Reviewed in the United States February 25, 2026*

20s on my EBMX are indestructible! 0 flats in 4 years. Roll fast, quiet and SOOO much grip. Surprisingly good off-road for what they are.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect upgrade for my eBike. Amazing tire!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 5, 2026*

We kept having the rear tire blow out, due to eBikes weighing more and going faster than their traditional counterparts. Got dangerous. Went through several tires and tubes. Finally, got a Hookworm. Solved the issue. It's slightly larger than the recommended 2.30" width stock tire. But fits. Huge improvement in handling and ride comfort. Also, most importantly, it doesn't blow out under heavy load. Super awesome tire for a heavy e-bike used daily. Love it. It also looks super cool btw. Nice touch. Thank you Maxxis!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent performance and quick delivery
*by  on Reviewed in the United States May 17, 2026*

I like supporting my local bike shop but often had to order tubes and tires and the order would take over a month to arrive!!I appreciated getting the item in a reasonable time and it is a good quality, in fact, haven’t needed to replace tube since!! Before, VERY frequent flats.. I guess the tire was too worn or something.
