First thought of brand is Nishiki.

As to going to 650B, why? Will both wheels be that size? If so will the rear fit without frame mods? Won't the front fit the original fork? Do you still have it? Do you know what the original fork's geometry is/was?

I have to admit a certain skepticism about making major frame mods/changing steering geometry as well as the whole 650B thing. Why pursue a size that has so little options available, and spend so much effort doing so? For fun? For the experience?

I am curious to your reasons and expectations. Andy.
