Iirc a 29er wheel is about 10% bigger than 26 so you'll want a chainring around 10% smaller than normal or a sprocket 10% bigger. I'm not quite sure what normal is though for alfine

32:16 on a 26 = 32:18 on 29er. I can only comment from a s/s viewpoint so my limited knowledge is all used up ๐Ÿ˜•

Why don't you work it out with Sheldon's help?

I've got a 20 tooth sprocket if you find the 18 too high.

Im on 34/16...buts thats on 37c road tyres.Which is about as much use as a chaocolate tea pot I know.Oh yeah turn the sprocket round (take off plastic guard) for better chainline.
