  • I'm gonna buy an Omnium. What tyre size can I shoehorn into the rear with 650b? Or is the lack of google search results for Omnium 650b subtly telling there is a reason not to do it...

  • You wouldn't be the first one to do it. A local mechanic has a WTB Horizon, with mudguard. I don't know if he did anything to the chain stays.
    The Omnium International Owners group on FB is good for that sort of queries.

    I wouldn't bother. I did and couldn't fit a much bigger tyre than the 700c 38mm I was using before and was getting pedal strikes all over the place: not much fun. Went back to 700c.
