Who is riding a 650b?

No but the fluorescent pink fur on the dashboard does.

Indeed it does, ask any Dude from Welkom and he will confirm.

Again, why don't you want to succumb to 29'er mania? Why succumb to 650b mania before it's implemented properly? For the most part, if you want the benefit of bigger wheels, then buy the right 29'er and you'll be hard pressed to outride the bike. This nonsense that 29'ers are slow in single track and sloppy climbers is total bull, especially if you consider the new, snappier geometry that some of these bikes now sport. If you want a technical rig then buy a 26 dually, if you want a cross country rig then get a 29, why do you think you're going to get a marked improvement by bastardising a tested design solution?

 

Do fat mags and whitewalls make your Ford Escort go faster?

the world cup and world championships were won on a 650b , just built myself up a one ali frame with xo groupset and ztr crest 650b wheels and comes in at 9.8kg
