I had exactly the same thought - she's only 5'3" and short legged at that, and I think 650B is the bees' knees, but for what she wants to do, I think 700C will be better. Steve says there won't be wheel swaps, but her frame will have a lot of clearance. If one of her cohorts bangs a wheel out of true, she'll be able to put it in her frame and they can all ride home :-) (Don't laugh ... it could have happened with me and a friend. Fortunately I was able to bang his wheel back straight enough that it would fit in his carbon fork.)
