And offroad I can run the 650Bs in the mid to low 20's psi tubeless, and it shreds. I keep up with my teenager on his hardtail no prob.
I found I could put 54mm in my front fork (only 40 in the rear). Big fat tire in the front eats up roots/rocks, gives me flotation (if I need it) and also increases the trail by about 10mm.
