Most tandems including mine are built with 145 rear spacing, so I can't use any of my rear 29'er wheels on my tandem. My fronts will fit but they are 32 spoke and I fear they are too light for disc brake use on the front of a tandem.

I build my own, but the tandem retailers should have a good selection. if you do a search on wheels, you will probably find a lot of discussion.
