Interesting, did they change the geo/clearances? For next year's model? What about the current (2013) one?
Just seen they actually recommend medium-drop (as per the R650) here but I've got a PDF that says short-drops will work, though I think it's a rather old PDF. Hmm. Might just stick with the R650s then, and offer up the 6600 front brake to the wheel when I have the frame in my hands to check.
On the Bob when I had the 6600 brake I had a mm or two to play with but the 6700 on there now has the pads right at the lower limit.
