Your LBS stocks 650B tires?  Wow.  Mine doesn't.  At least, they
recognize them now (having worked on my three bikes).  They aren't
singling out 650B; they don't stock much of anything in tires other than
700x23 Armadillos and knobby 559s.  Can you imagine riding a 12,000
racing bike on Armadillo tires?  Maybe if you live in goathead country,
and your only other alternative is a tracked vehicle...
