I also like nothing smaller than 38mm on a 700c to 650b conversion, or things will look weird on a large frame (I ride 60-62 cm). See my Bridgestone - it has 38mm tires without fenders and I think it looks ok. And it rides wonderfully.
You know, guys, I can't keep
all my vintage Treks...
Sure, I have my purple 510 up locally, but I still think it's just a cool color, fading and all. Definitely needs tan wall tires regardless. I at least have fenders that should work...
