I want to chime in on this thread, because, at some point I may convert from 27 to 700...
So...for clarification...
A 27" wheel is 630mm.
A 700c wheel is 622mm
8mm diameter difference. (5/16 of an inch)
4mm radial difference (or about a smidge over 1/8 of an inch)
So if I can drop my brake pads a smidge over 1/8 of an inch...I can make do this conversion easily.
Correct?
