Datum's clearance was disappointingly narrow when run as a 650. Lovely ride, but to be completely honest, not much of a revelation.

Good to know. I may leave 650b for my other bike and run 35mm Bon Jon pass tubeless on the new one.

I'm keen on the new rigid Cannondale Slate (being cheaper and lighter), so 650b 48mm on a lightweight package sound like fun.

Classic CX clearance i'd say. Plenty space for mud. Clement Xplor 40mm with smaller knobs wasn't an issue.
Contemplating parting with this frame though. I really enjoy it but currently building a bike that will do the bikepacking/gravel/touring part better (plus 650b compatible) And i miss having a lighter (but still gravel capable) road bike. Been looking at the genesis datum and the likes. Unfortunately can't afford keeping both.
So if anyone's interested in adopting it in exchange of some coin then pm :)
