Datum's clearance was disappointingly narrow when run as a 650. Lovely ride, but to be completely honest, not much of a revelation.
I'm keen on the new rigid Cannondale Slate (being cheaper and lighter), so 650b 48mm on a lightweight package sound like fun.
That's why I'm holding off the build like yours. Waiting till next year for something compliant with 48mm that doesn't egg me on to ride fast but ride for shits and giggles.
