I recently bought a secondhand Scott Sub 10 to commute 13 miles each way to work through London. I love the bike, its a real responsive ride with a stiff fully rigid frame and fork combo. As it was secondhand I had no option to specify which wheels it comes with (either 26" or 700c). I now realise that it's much easier to get road rims and wheels for 700c.

Is it possible to interchange the wheels?? The brakes are discs so calipers aren't an issue. Would I really notice the difference if I could change them? What are the advantages?
As others have noted the swap is not worth the $$$ or effort.
