Here at SixFifty, we have been trying to finding ways to keep our mind off the lack of warm weather in Wisconsin. So we tried outfitting a Trek Remedy with some 650b gear. Check out the pictures below.
We decided to throw a 15mm White Brothers Loop fork on the front end of a Trek Remedy.
We also decided to throw on a 15mm American Classic 650BXC front wheel to complete the front end.
Just for fun, we tried our hand at turning a Shimano shifter into a Joplin seat post remote.
We were surprisingly successful, with a flick of the trigger the seat post goes down or up.
Not so long ago we received our shipment of the new Jamis 2012 650b hardtails which included the Jamis Nemesis.

The Nemesis is spec’d with great parts for the price. It is stocked with Elixir 3 storm grey brakes with 160mm HS1 rotors. These brake levers have matchmaker clamps with X7 2×10 grey trigger shifters.

As part of the X7/Elixir 3 Matchmaker set, it has a 10 speed storm grey Sram X7 rear derailleur and a double Sram X5 front derailleur.
The Nemesis has a Sram S1000 39/26t crank set, along with a Sram press fit BB30 bottom bracket.
To get you rolling on the trail, the Nemesis has a set of XD – Lite Alex Rims with Formula sealed bearing hubs. These wheels have a pair of 2.1 Kenda Nevegal tires for all round performance.
Finally for a smooth ride, the Nemesis has an X Fusion Velvet fork with a tapered head tube. The frame is made from triple butted 7005 Kinesis Aluminum with an Agent Orange paint job.
