Does it has to be a 700c wheel only? I'm talking about sanctioned races.
Sorry for a noob question, I'm just curious. TIA!

yes

I retract my yes and replace it with a maybe.
Your wheels have to both be the same size under UCI rules. No funny bikes.

I believe there is a minimum number of spokes requirement...but don't quote me on it.

The tire has to be under 35mm except for beginners.
