Hi Technics,
On what CdF model you managed to mouns the 650bx47? What kind of clearing do you get?
I have mesured my CdF 20 2016 XL at the narrowest area between the chain stays(about where the tire would fit) and it only has 50mm. Was a bit disapointed as I was after the WTB 47s also. I am not sure how much improvement would be from a 700x35 to a 650x44 in terms of comfort on rougher routes and I am hesitaying about them.

Definitely noticable, but the bikes going to drop, the 44mm tyre wont take up as much height

I have 650b 42mm in an old CdF. Not had pedal strike yet and rides fine

It's a 2014 model.. clearance isn't huge.. maybe 2-3mm each side, but it's enough for what I need.. I noticed a good difference jumping from 32mm 700c gravelkings to the 650b 47c... far more comfortable over the rougher stuff.. You could try the 42mm WTB Resolutes.. might give a bit more clearance
