Dishing Asymmetric Rear-Wheel

So, I have a 2019 Cannondale SuperX Force-1. I want to swap my 700C wheels over to 650B. I discovered a nice 650B wheelset I want to use.

Q: How difficult is it to re-dish a built rear wheel over to asymmetric?

AS difficult as to true a wheel. All that dishing is is just truing on a grand scale. No more, no less. Andy

Asymmetric generally means that the spoke holes are off center in the rim. The rim is still centered with respect to the hub and should not require any changes to work with your frame.

I took the OP's wheel as having the rim on the frame's centerline but the axle is off set to one side. Then this wheel was to be used in a different frame that has centered drop outs and thus the rim would be off center w/o any redishing. Andy

Ai Asymmetric Integration, basically the rear wheel gets redished 6mm to the left. Dunno if your spokes will support that or not but it's not rocket surgery.
