I've been combing the forums but haven't found anything relevant yet so I figure I'll ask here where you all seem to be on my page for builds and clearly know what you are talking about. I've got a 1992ish Univega Via Activa that I converted to drops a while back. I love the bike, but I hate the limitations of the 700c wheelset. From what I understand, 700c is approximately the same as 29" MTB wheelsets in terms of diameter. Would a 29er wheelset be compatible? I'm also toying with the idea of offloading the rig altogether if I can get the Rockhopper to a point I'm happy with, the univega frame is at least a size too big but was free...
