Diameter- have I got the right end of the stick with the whole 650B thing when I say that you can use a slightly smaller rim with a larger volume tyre to end up with a wheel that is the same overall diameter as a 700C with (say) a 23 on it?

Velocity A23 are now 650b, I think Pacenti SL23 are available in 650b - Not sure about availability in this country as yet.
If not, any 650b MTB rim will work, Pacenti TL28, Stans, as Jameso Said, Velo Orange do a 650b rim.
Ritchey make a 650b MTB slick which is available from Paligap in the UK

Dear LFGSS hive-mind.
I'm putting together a potential urban frame build design at the moment, and I am considering going 650b for the wheels.
I am a bit concerned about general availability of stuff in 650B sizing. Are there any good sources for tyres, tubes and rims in the UK, or is it mostly import?
Ta!
