Bikes: A bunch of old bikes and a few new ones

I like the idea. The biggest problem in a 650b conversion is that you may get heel strike once you drop the BB; that's not an issue here because the bike has a high center of gravity. A little fatter tire at a little lower pressure is good. That said, not worth doing unless you can do it inexpensively since what you have is pretty good and this will be an incremental improvement at best.
