Been aware of this size for a while, along with 26, 29, now there's 27.5 too !

MTB Action did a test/review this month on the 3 sizes, but it was a bit inconclusive....

Anyone tried the 650B size?

KHS got a h/tail out with this configuration...Looks nice/different.

    The 650B was the standard used by Geoff Apps back in 1978 and the derivatives of his frame designs, Jeremy Torr of English Cycles and Dave Wrath-Sharman of Highpath.

    At one point the early frame builders in the States were looking into it after conversations with Geoff so they could use the Nokia Hakkapeliitta tyres.

    Geoff's latest bike is a 29er
    Now where's that "Get Out of Crash Free Card"
