More SL23 headache. Is anyone intimate with the differences between the 2014 and 2015 versions? For one thing, I can't find any reliable ERD info on the 2015 650b rim, is it 1mm more like the 700c? For another, I've read that the brake track on the 2015 is ridiculously narrow, like 7.5mm. If that's true, I'm pretty sure my canti pads will be rubbing off a lot of extra rim anodising... Should I just go with the 2014, or are the tyre-fitting issues really that bad?
