But, in the world of 650b, you will eventually re-set your tire value-meter in your head. You get to enjoy the luxury of the cushy ride. The fenderability of a 650b frame. The mind blowing safety and stability of a 40mm, 55psi tire on broken up road shoulders (at least for me, coming from a 700c x 25mm 120 psi tire-ed bike). Just be glad you didn't go 650b *before* 2013, when pickins were even *slimmer* for 650b tires. And remember, *650c *won't work. Different rim bead seat diameter size there. I'll have to put Hetres on the Sam to see if I can feel a diff and can see a diff (on the cyclometer). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
