650b Conversion

Hi,

I would like to know whether is possible to fit 650B wheels on my 700c road frame.

The reason is trying to fit a wider/winter/commuting tyre as now I can mount max 28mm and no clearence at all.

Frame and fork are chinese made carbon road, rim carbon caliper brakes, Koozer RS1400 700C wheels, 28mm commuter tyres.

I'm supposing I cannot use my brakes due to diameter difference (there are any 'extensions' out there?) so looking for a disk brake conversion too.

Basically I wonder whether is possible to put a 650B, 35-40mm tyres, and use some adapter to fit disk brakes.

Thanks for any thought about that.

Cheers
