I'm considering converting my old road bike from 27" wheels to 700c (Because I just busted the front rim and can't seem to get a hold a of a good quality 27" 1/4 rim - ie. double / triple wall 36 hole with eyelets).
Can anyone point me in the direction of an archive or article on the issues involved in making this conversion - apart from just the reach of the brake calipers. I'm really interested to know if I run the risk of stuffing up the predictable / neutral handling I currently enjoy with my current 27" wheels.
I'm sure other people have been through this - I tried searching the forum archives but couldn't find a thread on this issue.
All thoughts appreciated.
Best Regards
Rob.
