I just laced up a set of Pacenti Brevet rims on 6800 hubs. Rims are nice. Absolutely no problem with mounting Pari Moto tires. Just a short time ago, the same question about 650b rims came up, someone posted here or ibob list indicating the VO 650b rims were a PIA for tire mounting. Perhaps the sale items are that batch of rims that are a poor match for tires.
