I'm awaiting my hunt 650b wheels to put on the sequoia....mainly because the stock wheels are heavy and shite, but also to try the whole 650b thing. The tyres on my stock rims are 42mm sawtooth jobbies, and I have to say, they are very good at around 30-35 psi. I'll be putting some schwalbe G-ones on, in 650x2.35 flavour, so I'll be losing a shit load of weight, but will have a similar wheel diameter.
Eventually, I'll also be attempting to bastardise my old airborne ti frame into a gravel thing...trying to do that with spare parts from the cave though.
You're not wrong! I'm going to try to whittle out some old MTB shifters to fit some road drops etc....no doubt I'll break em, bin em, then have to start buying more stuff!
