Are there any cranks 3 cm longer than 170s?

I don't usually fret about BB height on my 650b conversions, but use
170 mm cranks. However, adding 1-3 cm of crank length would have me
concerned enough to not recommend it. I've scraped road twice in
thousands of miles with SPD pedals (sorta bounced the pedal off the
road--not any danger of crashing). Most of my miles have been with a
650b Ram.
Besides, the benefit for 650b conversions (for me) is to gain in max
tire width, which is beneficial for the plush ride and safer in terms
of handling cracks and potholes in the road. I can't tell if you are
thinking about converting your Hunq or Atlantis, but it doesn't seem
to be of benefit in terms of tire width, because those bikes can
handle wide tires already?

Miss Ryan, I agree that tragic is much better than fatal when
discussing accidents of any kind: whether people, bike or cars are
involved. Steel bikes usually repairable, people rehabilitated,
newer cars written off by insurance companies.
Are 47cm chain stays longer than normal. I have Clem like spacing
between wheel and seat tube?
