I had a 54 cm 650b Ram with 54 mm Hetre/Baby Shoe Pass tires and SKS fenders. It was as good as my custom bike, except for the toe overlap and dynamo wiring. I used thin profile V-brake style pads to get a little extra reach with the Tektro R559. That strategy may be able to be combined with the offset brake-pad holders if needed.

I used offset brake-pad holders on the rear caliper to get a tad more reach. If it turns out you need a bit more reach on your bike, let me know. I still have those offset brake-pad holders.
