• Following with interest. Considering a switch from 700c wheels to 27.5, for the same reason - cushyness. Wondering how practical/expensive/worth it it would be

  • For me it’s all about going from a tire width of 35 to 48. Couldn’t believe the difference on my gravel/road bike when I first tried a wider tire. Like riding with noise cancelling headphones… on your wheels… or something…
    But sure, the cost of new wheels just to be able to fit new tires kinda sucks.

  • When I did my “try it for cheaps” 700c to 650b conversion it cost me £45 for a pair of QR wheels inc tyres and rotors from eBay they are not exactly sort after.
    Interested to see how this rides. Looks like it’s going to be good already.
