Whilst Maxxis Re-Fuse is better for road, gravel, and hybrid activities, Maxxis Hookworm is a great choice if your needs are more aligned to bmx activities.

Re-Fuse

Hookworm

Highly durable road training tire

Tough enough for the meanest streets.

The Maxxis Re-Fuse is legendary for its durability. A great choice for any rider concerned about punctures from road debris.

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.

Tubeless Ready Tubeless tires provide the rider with many benefits: the ability to run lower air pressures, which improves traction; lower rolling resistance when compared to a tube-type tire; and less chance of flatting because there is no tube. Liquid sealants should only be used in the following types of tires: tubeless road, tubular, and tubeless ready. The use of liquid sealants in any other Maxxis tire will void the warranty.
MaxxShield MaxxShield represents the ultimate in flat protection. We begin with our SilkShield bead-to-bead protection and add our K2 (Aramid Composite) layer under the tread for unparalleled durability.
