C'dale Synapse Neo - 650b v 700c?

[Tim O]

Hello All,

Did any of you C'dale Synapse Neo owners go for the 650b wheels? If so, how do you find them? I'm thinking of getting one of these bikes for some touring in the Spring and can't make up my mind between the two wheel sets they offer.

Thank you in advance.

I don't have one, but the bike comes with fairly podgy WTB tyres.

They are rather like cartwheels on 700c rims, so I would go for 650b.
