I have fitted a 650b rear wheel with 42mm tyres on my carbon road bike (max clearance was 32mm with 700c).
It fit very well, just a couple millimeters of space on each side of the chainstay, if I can fit 42mm on my bike, you should be able to have 42mm on your.

Looks awesome.
I'm currently building a commuter that will fit 650b 42 so i might swap wheels between this, and that one, just to try it out. The rear wheel is not perfectly centered between the stays on the rychtarski, and the seatstays are not sloping/flaring outwards (see picture), so i worry that 42's would rub the stay. The Barlow Pass 38's i ran last year was tight fit.

what kind of setup do you have? 1 cog and 2 chainrings? i was wondering about this kinda drivetrain, or even a 3x1, with a triple upfront, all the reading i have found would kinda point to a nono, just to keep a simple 1x7 ou 8 or 9 or whatever would be lighter and have more useable gears while still "cleanner" than the 3x1
what do you thing about it?
