No, bigger wheels do not necessarily mean more ground clearance.
That's a function of frame design.


Bigger wheels are much better. Try a 630 bike after your 622 and feel
the difference. Or likewise try a 584 after the 622 and feel it
getting even worse.

Again, how big exactly are the 29 wheels? I ask because in the MTB
bike world aren't both 26 and 27.5 actually 584 or 650B?


It's people like you that love to stir up trouble. In ye olden days
you'd have simply been burnt at the stake :-)
