...I can push that up to 28s next time I need tyres!
That's definitely a good idea, from several angles. Bigger tyres, yet another (tiny) reduction in gearing (probably offset largely by the bigger tyres), hopefully plain alloy rims.Fit 650b wheels.

Excellent plan!
I hope those forks don't flex.
I had that on one bike. The wheel would spin freely with the bike on the stand but I didn't realise that the flex in the fork was enough to get the tyre to rub when I was sitting on the bike. I wore a bald strip on the tyre and took the paint off the underside of the fork before I noticed!I hope those forks don't flex.
