This is a brand new wheelset which I have just built!
It is an ideal wheelset for those who don't have the clearance for wider 700c tyres.
27.5" = 650B = 584mm diameter.
700c = 622mm diameter.
Difference is 38mm or 19mm on the radius.
Technically, you could run a 40mm 650B tyre instead of a 20mm 700c tyre and it would be the same overall diameter.
Here is the wheelset spec:
new Bontrager Duster 27.5'' TLR PV 32H Black Rims. MSRP £120.00 - Paid £40 posted Satin matt black finish / No braking surface / tubeless compatible / Asymmetric rims / 32h / 28mm wide outside / 23mm inside
new OddityK Flip Flop Black Track Hubs, 3/8" axles, 100mm/120mm spacing - Paid £25 posted
new Araya Rebound ATB Road Spokes St Steel P/Gauge Black 272mm & 16mm black brass nipples - Paid £25 posted
new LifeLine rim tape - Paid £3 posted
Tyres - new Schwalbe Active Gumwalls in 44-584 (650 1/2 B) with new inner tubes - Paid £25 posted
Lacing 3x, as track so although the rims are asymmetric, they are centered.
Total spend £118 - so let's called it SOLD FOR £120 for the wheelset WITH A FRONT DISC HUB so I can buy more parts to build more wheels.
