Hi, all is not lost, the chart is not 100% true, 700B's are not the same as the old large roadsters, as it is a narrower width, off the top of my head, I think the old roadsters are 42mm wide and 700B's are 30'ish. You can get a new narrow 635 tyre, I have a couple ready to try on my Alcyon project, and I did buy new 700A's from Australia, after buying them I found an Italian supplier of the tyres , they look okay https://www.flickr.com/photos/tk_photos ... 802662687/. Also I have used 27inch 1 1/4 rims ( 630 mm ) as a back stop, they look okay https://www.flickr.com/photos/tk_photos ... 660435149/ . Keep the good work up, worth the effort. Thanks Terry
