I had a high end bike shop this week tell me my Domane wasn't designed for 650b and I would be doing myself a disservice by using them. What a moron. Putting 650b wheels on my Domane just makes it more versatile. Glad to see you have the same idea of using different wheels for different applications.

@tonyenglish292 3 ай бұрын

Hi, what model/size Domane do you have and what tyre width did you go with? I'm considering 650b for my gen 3 sl6 ASX, size 56cm. Any info is appreciated. Thanks. T.

@rubikzcuberuss7404 5 ай бұрын

Luvin your videos Benjamin 😊 I recently built my topstone lab71 up and went with 650b mainly because my mountain bikes are 650b but also the are the 700c much quicker? Maybe on the road and the flat if it's smooth but overall handling offrd many cyclists are saying 650b is playfully and more agile. I live down on the South Coast, a couple of trails that I'm sure you would enjoy are South Downs Way 100miles from Winchester to eastbourne mainly offroad with 3500mtrs of climbing. The King Alffreds Way 220 miles from Winchester going past stonehenge, along the ridgeway,Reading,devil's punch bowl @ hindhead n back to Winchester a truly fantastic route for you to film, I did it over 3 days to take in the sights along the way. Looking forward to seeing the bike built 😊
