I feel your pain, Larry... I had fit problems with my ZAC 19s, and struggled to find reasonably-priced, good 650B wheels... it was a big hassle (going back 2-3 years) and I finally gave up. And I'm still not entirely convinced I'd build any wheels other than 26 or 700c, based on my experience. The industry seems to have reacted too slowly (in my opinion) to the demand for 650B, but hopefully things are finally starting to look better. Maybe I need to give it another chance... I've got a project bike that screams for a pair of Grand Bois Hetres....
