Actually, I have no idea what that means, but I find that my 650B rides in general have lots of cush and roll right over rough spots in the road, but the good quality tires means that they still feel fast-ish, so it's not like riding a balloon tire Schwinn.

Hi Neal,
So are you saying that it is primarily the available tire quality that makes the difference between the feel of the ride on 650B vs 26" wheels? You would be happy, say, putting better quality tires on your balloon tire Schwinn, as opposed to doing a 650B conversion on it? Not arguing, just trying to understand.
Thanks,
Eric
