Hi Toshi, I just tested the fit of my Bleriot's Hetres on my Ram and they fit just fine, with room for fenders. The resulting bottom bracket height is ~260mm. My Hetres on Synergy rims measure ~670mm in diameter. The new brake reach for 650b wheels is ~72mm-74mm on the Ram, so I think Paul Racers would be out (max reach is 67mm), but I think the Diacompe Mod 750 brakes would work.
hope this helps some, -Jay B. On Tuesday, October 30, 2012 5:48:33 PM UTC-4, ttoshi wrote: > > I'm thinking about a potential 650b Ram with 42mm Hetres.
