Danger Dassie Posted November 13, 2012 Share HIJACK....speaking of which, would really like some Schwalbe RR snakeskin's in 2.4...anyone know where I could get 2.4 in Racing Ralph. Don't think they make them that big. Maybe the Hans Dampf, but even then. http://www.schwalbe.com/gbl/en/suche/produkte/ergebnis/index.php5?flash=1&produkt=Racing%20Ralph&etrtoFahrradRollstuhl=0&zoll=0&etrto=0&senden_x=34&senden_y=7&senden=1&hidden_einsatzbereich=&hidden_produkt=&hidden_etrto=&hidden_zoll=&hidden_mainPoint=&hidden_subPoint=&hidden_subSubPoint=&tn_mainPoint=&tn_subPoint=&ID_Produktgruppe=&ID_Land=38&ID_Sprache=2 Edited November 13, 2012 by danger dassie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flowta Posted November 13, 2012 Share Okay so I posted this before but damnfangle man I'm tired of people referring to 650B as 27.5" or halfway between 26 and 29. It aint! Here's the low down:26 diam = 559mm650b diam = 584mm29 diam = 622mm So 650B is only 12.5mm bigger than 26" in radius. Not a lot.29" is 31.5mm bigger. Also not a huge amount but nearly 3 times the amount of 650B. Yes I know it's not a bit difference but everybody seems to be jumping onto the 26 for small, 650B for medium and 29 for large bikes rule and it simply aint true. In my opinion 650A would have been a better "standard" to settle on. OK, so 650B is more like 27" and 29ers are actually 28.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eugene Posted November 13, 2012 Share If we refer to 650b, then we know that we are talking 27.5inch wheels. It can be equated to clipless pedals. We all refer to our pedals being clipless, but they actually have clips on them. Nobody complains because we know what we are talking about To quote an old cliche.........."whats in a name" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody complains because we know what we are talking about To quote an old cliche.........."whats in a name" Yeah, but the thing is, they're NOT 27.5" A clipless pedal IS clipless, because it doesn't have those god-awful toe-clips & straps that you used to "clip" yourself into (the road versions had a v-shaped notch that the pedal slotted into) so - it is best to call it 650b. The standard is not a standard is not 27.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
