I can swap wheelsets in about two minutes so I decide what terrain I'm riding and choose accordingly.
Which cassette are you using on your 650b wheelset versus your 700c?
its awesome to be able to switch wheelsets like this. Im sure the 650b set is helpful in snowy conditions.
my thin road tires perform mostly well in slippery or gravelly conditions for the time being.
