Will Maxxis 26 X 2.50 Hookworms fit on a Surly V brake 1 X 1 frame, without removing the mounts, etc…….?

Or is there anything similar or even bigger??

What no one???

Go on, someone must have tried this…

I’ve got a pair of them in the shed, want me to mount em on a rim and measure the width? they are sodding enormous and very heavy mind

What width? and if you can be ars*d that would be good. Using 2.3 Uff Da’s at present, but I fancy something bigger.

Any pics I have seen of that setup, the brake mounts have been removed.

However, I think it may be possible to leave them if you don’t fully inflate the tyre until the wheel is in place – so long as the width of the rims are not a problem.

From MTBR forum

ask this FTMN guy?
These seem like 2.5″ and you should be able to keep the mounts if you inflate the tyre after, well, mounting it?

Well it looks possible.

Spev, fancy selling yours?

Bought some, fitted them, no problem, loads of space….look very nice
