I realized I can't have this bike for cheap so I picked another one for commuting right now. I still like the 29" cruiser frame with 29er rims though. I just like the idea of 700c wheels on a cruiser. I'm going to do some digging to see if it can be had reasonably. I read on another thread someone shaved a bit off of their BB shell to fit an eccentric BB but I don't want to mess with aluminum in that respect. Maybe I'll try one of the 29" wheel on 26" frame conversions a lot of mtbers are talking about. I could always just buy a 700c coaster wheelset, they should be the same diameter. There's no way I'm trusting a Wal-Mart coaster hub lol.

If anyone has any more ideas I would appreciate it, and probably anyone else who's thinking the same thing. Thanks to everyone who's contributed thus far.

I almost forgot, Thanks for the pic Mashtofu. That's a beautiful bike .
