[#2048979]

has anyone put 700cc wheels on a 26" inbred?
thinking of making a do it all bike:

26" wheels for touring, and then 700ccs with a tighter cassette for commuting

i realise there is a 29er, but im looking at options at the mo

i've had mine set up like that, not loads of clearance at the back so ok if you want to put a skinny tyre on but if you want to use hybrid tyres you may struggle, the biggest i got on was a 30mm. Apologies for the seat angle and excess cable

I'd like to know this as well because finger measuring my road wheels and then trying to transfer this measurement to my Inbred after a few bears has proved less than conclusive.

I stared at that for 5 minutes (through a bottle of red) and was convinced it was perfect.

Tits.
