We examine the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM) with an additional requirement of strict [ital b]-[tau] unification in the region of small tan[beta]. We find that the parameter space becomes completely limited below about 1 TeV by physical constraints alone, without a fine-tuning constraint. We study the resulting phenomenological consequences, and point out several ways of falsifying the adopted [ital b]-[tau] unification assumption. We also comment on the effect of a constraint from the nonobservation of proton decay.
