will 26" GT Peace accept 29" wheels?
the frame for the peace and peace 9er look to be exactly the same. can anyone confirm this? i'm wondering if i can buy the 26" peace and later put 700c wheels on it. i want a 29er, but i can get last years 26er for cheaper, plus i already have 700c wheels.

The two frames are not the same, and normal, descent 29er tires will not fit.

Some of these idiots (i.e. the guys running 700C cross tires in XC races) race at the provincial and national level, and I myself have built up a rather idiotic mountain bike I'll post sometime.

Well, we're all entitled to our opinion, but based on yours there are an awful lot of idiotic riders around here.
