Hi
As above says please.
I am looking at converting my whippet to 650b.
Thanks
Presumably you're also researching elsewhere?

Lots of pics, lots of conversions, lots of info.
Stranga that's lovely but the rear clearance looks like its a mm or two! Is that a 26in fame?
Lots of photo's of my wife's 650b Whippet on her XC Racer blog:

No its a 650b frame, plenty clearance at the stays but just about enough at top arch of the swingarm although the Hans Damfs are a large volume tyre pics probably make it look a touch closer than it actually is.
Yeah, looks less tight in the other angle, but still close. Elegant looking bike though, proportion wise.
Nice bike stranga.
Regardless of wheel size, Gee's first pic is ace.
slightly off topic...
Stranga - how do you like the cube? been eyeing one up since they came out, but struggling to find a demo. Enjoying it?
Well god darn it, a Cube that looks good 😀
Gee - 1st photo is a beaut. Worry Gill?
Yes that was that National race at Dalby in April 2012 - one of the worst races in terms of weather I've ever done. Practice on the Saturday was in torrential hail (ouch) then the race was mainly in the pissing rain. A massive hole got eroded at the bottom of the Worry Gill drop which hurt more and more every lap...
Great pic Gee!
Cruzer only a couple of rides on it so far, but yes I am liking it, cant really comment on wheel size but it is so light, climbs and accelerates really well, all the angles seem good and the spec is top notch so once I get the suspension dialled in (never had Talas or CTD Trail adjust before)am sure it will be great all round.
