I am going to get a set of 650b wheels for our co-motion, mainly to allow for wider tires for some light/medium gravel.

The bike uses rim brakes, and currently has DT540 hubs (10s) which I like for their durability and ease of maintenance. The website shows HG driver, but doesn’t say if it’s 11 speed road or mtb (10s).

Thanks,

Are you currently running 700c wheels? If so, how are you going to overcome the issue of the rim brakes not working with 650b wheels?
