I thought BQ listed the widths by the moment of inertia, a 650x42 having about the same as a 700x32. Same MI is expected to provide similar handling.
Also Mike Kone has some "words of wisdom"(his *Our Philosophy Note*) on 650 vs 700 for a brevet type bike on his Boulder Bicycle site, along with 'skinny' tubing. http://boulderbicycle.bike/Boulder-Bicycle-Rando-Overview-and-Pricing.html John Hawrylak Woodstown NJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
