Continental Race Kings in 27,5×2,0/50-650b. This is the maximum I can fit on my Dolan GXA. There's maybe 3mm or 4mm clearance in the rear.
So far so good. It'll be interesting what happens when the going gets muddy. 😬
It's a shame that Continental no longer seems to make this size. Oh well, now they were cheap at least.

yes, it doe seem like 650b gravel wheels had a brief flare of popularity , then died died down just as quickly. I haven’t seen any of the new tried, either “gravel” or “XC” released in 650b.
For this reason, I tell people if they are buying a new bike, not to bank on that size. Too bad because the idea of 2 wheel sets, skinny 700c and fat 650b seemed cool to me.
