Nov 3, 2019 at 8:34 comment added David Richerby @Criggie I don't see this working anywhere. It's far too broad and it has all the problems of more direct shopping questions: what's available will vary from place to place and over time.

Added a locale tag, clarify where start and end are.

Oct 25, 2019 at 23:49 comment added Andrew I highly recommend switching to inner tubes and taking a spare folding bead tire along with inner tube patches and at least one spare tube. Getting additional patches if you fun out should be easy. It’s also a good idea to carry a few spare spokes (especially drive side rear), or a Kevlar cable temporary spoke. And some spare shift and brake cables. You are very likely to spend time in places where parts are hard to find, especially for newer tech.
Oct 25, 2019 at 13:26 comment added Andy P 27.5/650b is a recently resurrected standard that is mostly found on Enduro/DH MTB's, and in the last year or two on gravel bikes. In remote areas you are probably more likely to find 26" standard than 650b. 700c on the other hand is a well established standard used by road/cx/touring/xc-mtb for many years
Oct 25, 2019 at 12:09 comment added Shan-x 650b being 27.5", I thought it would be more available than 700c...
Oct 25, 2019 at 11:53 comment added Andy P I suspect for touring in more remote areas your going to have a much greater chance of replacement tyres in 700c rather than 650b. And regardless, whatever you can get, don't count on it being tubeless compatible.
