Bridgestone Grand Velo geometry and 650B?

Greetings -- first post for me.

I have an angle on a Bridgestone Grand Velo 2000 and am wondering if anyone knows the precise geometry of this frame? From old scans online I can find out the details for the RB-1 and I'm guessing they're quite similar.

Possibly someone has the actual details? Also, seems like this would be a viable candidate for a 650B conversion.

Great forum, so many questions already answered that I've never felt the need to join up and post before.

Never done a 650B, but seems like a candidate to me.
