I have a frame with 700x35c original wheels and tyres.
Would like to go off road, but here in jakarta, 700 knobbies are rare.
is it possible to put 26 wheels and knobbies on my frame?
Unless you are running disc brakes, no it won't work. Another option, if you have a welder relocate the brake studs lower on the frame/fork. One more, if you want to run 2.1+ mtb tires make sure your frame can fit those puppies.
