Now it's a proper gravel bike I'm using my set of 650B wheels. Well, half the set. I got a new front wheel built with a dynamo and WTB i25 rim instead of the Hope/i23 it had previously.
If I was doing it again I'd probably not bother with 650B and stick to 700C but go wider than the 18-19m internal Kinlin and DT Swiss road rims I used for Badlands.
Cheap carbon sucks and expensive carbon is, expensive. If I'm gonna be smashing wheels into rocks I want something that might bend instead of cracking. I'll keep the carbon for the TT bike.

Carbon can do one too. Alu ftw
