Wow, these are some beautiful conversions. Some help please, if you will. My daily commuter was stolen a couple of weeks ago and I've been thinking about how to replace it. I have a speedy bike, and a touring bike, and an oldie bike (all really nice fun bikes), but my daily commuter was fitted out with baskets and racks etc. I work as a carpenter and I've occasionally loaded my full kit onto my old bike to trek it across town to some job that requires my immediate appearance. I could make it on my old bike but it always seemed too wobbly for my taste. I've got a miyata 310 frame (for 27" wheels) and having read these great 650B conversion stories, I'm wondering if I should do the same. I would really like a sturdy bike to move my (heavy) tools around. I don't want a mountain bike type frame or anything really beefy, just a little bit sturdier ride than I had. Would this miyata 310 frame work for what I want to do? I'm ready to take the plunge.

thanks for any advice. I didn't want to start a whole new thread. Sorry if this is a hijack.
cheers Joe
