BLT2's have a reputation for being excellent 650b rides. "Purs" on the MTBR forums has been riding one for a couple years now: http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=482637 With any 650b conversion, keep in mind that there are a lot of issues involved including : the bike is going to ride higher than normal, your effective gearing will be taller, your brake rotors will be weaker, and you need to worry about issues like cable, FD, and arch and crown rub on your forks.
