How do the hookworms feel?

I really like the hookworms, they are so thick in the walls that i cant even recall ever pinch flatting one. Next to no rolling resistance is why I like them the most, at the cost of grip obviously, which makes them a bit hectic on the 4X tracks. The other downside is there weight, the are about a kilo each which is unfortunate. Might look at some holy rollers next, or maybe DMR moto's.

What an awesome toy you do have there.
It looks awesome in the red, and pretty good spec too. I don't usually like 24 inch bikes, but this one looks awesome.

You might also want to consider Kenda K-Rads. They are 2,3 and really quite light. They are pretty much the same tread pattern as Holly Rollers but a touch thinner and lighter. IT makes pedalling so much easier and you can really feel the difference in weight as well.
Larsens aren't too bad either and may be pretty good for 4X.

yep, K-Rads were on the list of possibilities as well, as are halo twin rails. Ill wear the hookworms out first though..
Thanks for the comments guys, keep it rolling

No offence, but he cant of been to good then, One of the toughest frames out there i believe. Either that or he was doing something silly.
