Bikes: Mike Melton custom, Alex Moulton AM, Dahon Curl

I'd build up some new wheels with Sun CR-18 aluminum rims in ISO590 (a.k.a. 26 x 1 3/8 a.k.a. 650A) and mount some Col de la Vies, that way I wouldn't change the height or geometry of the bike or need a new fork or brakes. But that's just me; knock yourself out. With thin 700C tires the diameter is almost a wash.

622 + 23 +23 = 668

590 + 37 + 37 = 664
