Been doing a bit of maths around the BB height of the 2014 Croix de Fer.
With 65mm bb drop on 700 x 35c tyres the frame was designed for, the height is 281mm.
On 650b x 38 would put the bb height at 265mm.
Is that stupidly low?
I'm not fussed about crank length so will happily use a 165mm crank.
I'm sure I won't be leaning too far with panniers on the bike, either...
