Well conversions are great when you can go from < 700x28 with no chance for fenders to >650b x 33 with fenders. If you are still stuck with 28mm that is going to lower the bottom bracket alot and the ability to run fenders might not be worth the effort. I'm not sure I would even bother with a conversion these days, given there are probably some great used 650b bikes or off the rack Soma's available for cheap.
I keep my conversion bike around for sentimental reasons more than because its a great 650b bike. For instance the Bleriot, San Marcos are better bikes in my world view. -Dave J On Friday, March 23, 2018 at 3:41:00 PM UTC-4, KyleBH wrote: > > Assembling a bike from parts, 650B conversion, need some 28-32 650B > tires.
