What brakes were on there previously?
Weinmann 720 - cheap nasty things
The tyres on there are 28s plus I guess there is more rim choice for 700c
@withered_preacher my thoughts exactly
The drop from 27" to 700C is only 4mm, but 700C to 650B is another 19mm, which starts to get tricky. What brakes were on there previously? TBH I don't think I'd bother - it looks like you could get 32mm (maybe even 35mm?) tyres and guards on there with a 700C wheel, which should be fine for utility duty.
