Only concern is will she face plant every time she hits the front brake at speed?
Not if using fixed, the resistance of the feet/cranks does not allow your body to fly over the bars (well it shouldn't).
However, braking and skiding at the same time, now that is guaranteed flying.Regarding the 650 front and wheel, .... I wouldn't, it will alter the frame's geo, lower the BB, etc, etc...
Why not selling the BJ, and getting something right? -

Saw a girl at an alleycat a few months back running 650 front and rear on a small frame, seemed to work.

Don't want to sell the frame as it has a slight crease in the top tube right in front of the head tube lug and don't want to get rinsed on price. it's been fine for me for a year and my Mrs will just pootle about with it.
Although with 650's on it would look super slack!
Anyone done this?
Thinking of giving the frame to the Mrs, but toe overlap perturbs. So was pre posing to stick a 650 fork n wheel to overcome the problem.
Only concern is will she face plant every time she hits the front brake at speed?
Any other suggestions?
