The conversion consisted of 650B wheels with Synergy Velocity rims, Rivendale Fatty Rumpkin tires and phill wood hubs. I also added a Nitto Techtonic high rise stem and Nitto Albatross handlebars for a more upright seating position. Sugino cranks, Tange bottom bracket, Shimano Ultegra rear derailleur & Dura Ace front derailleur. Shimano mountian bike brake levers & Deore Light action shifters. Trektro long reach sidepull brake calipers w/drop link (see previous post) Selle Royal super comfy sprung saddle and Brooks Leather grips complete the package.
