Wide and deep 650b gravel wheelset

[Mimmo89]

Good morning,
I tried a quick search but couldn't find anything on the topic.

I'm looking for a wide and deep (something similar to the Zipp XPLRs) set of 650b rims on a budget.
I've looked at the usual suspects (Farsport, Lightbicycle, Light Carbon, ... ) but I don't seem to find any.

I know people like to dislike this option, but I want to make a 1 bike - 2 wheelsets setup for my gravel bike and I'm missing a 650b wheelset for it.

It looks like 650b rims have fallen off favour in the last few years, but I do think that they make sense in certain situations, mine certainly, in order to maintain the same geometry when swapping from a 700c wheel with road tire to a 650b wheel set with a wide gravel tire + to maintain enough tire clearance with a 2x setup.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I searched several times for 650B rims

With hook: almost nothing.
Hookless: from MTB sector , but they are usually rather low height rims.


Also the bad availability of tyres in 650B tells the same thing.
For 700C you are basically drowning in tons of options, good tyres for 650B are rare.
