Is it steel? Do you already have it? Can you just get mini v braze on welded for 650b position to try? If you are getting something new then probably disc i guess ..

Just go disc.
It's more flexible in wheels size, a lots of steel disc frame can be run with 65ob easily.
Fair point on wanting to look nice and classic, I do love my centerpull and find them easier to fiddle with than cantilevers, but the disc is so much more reliable in all condition.

So. Brake time. If I got a bike with 28 x 700c and mudguards, I'd get TRP RG957. If I got the same bike with 38 x 650b wheels, would I opt for discs or something centrepull? I don't really know enough about centrepull or its benefits. It'll be used 12 months of the year for all road riding in the UK.
