Do they have clearance for 700c? If you would have asked a few weeks ago I could have thrown a setup together to snap a pic, but I just sold my 1x1 frame.

I'm not a mountain biker, but if I wanted to mess around later 26" mountain wheels are pretty cheap these days. The 1x1 fits 26 x 2.7" tires, so I can't see clearance being an issue with, say 700x28. Handling might be funky though. I'm just not sure I need the bulk of a 29er frame for street riding, but I like 700c wheels.

Search on MTBR for 1x1 29ers. With 29er tires (not even cross tires) people have fit them in the stock forks and rear triangle.

I have a Srly1x1 running 26x2.5 Spclzed Pinn'its. Considering the amount of room still, I'm not surprised by the 29X2.1 size fitting.

Man, I need to take a pic at the next community bike ride. Theres a guy who built himself a single speed frame and has 36 inch rims on it. It's insanely massive. He also has 2 disc brakes up front. It's like the Bigfoot of bikes.

Monster 700 tires. On a lark I swapped my 700x42 wheel off the cross check and onto the 1x1. There was room for even more tire, could easily have gone to 2" or maybe a 2 1/4". The only thing your really doing is raising the bottom bracket height, so watch the boys on the top tube.
