I’ve started with 700c wheels on my Kepler disc with SKS guards and then built 650b dynamo / Novatec wheels and put 650b GB guards on. The front clearance is tight and a bit fiddly but I’ve not had any problems so far. The wheel size feels agile and doesn’t feel slower than 700 so I’m keeping it like this. If I ever take it on an off road ride I’d take the guards off and possibly swap tyres if it’s wet. Hope that helps.
