I found a set of mystery 700c wheels in my shed, so I decided to try installing 29er tires on them. The results were mixed.

Those wheels look just like the ones off my Giant.

Hi Jim, happy Sunday! Nice build! Maybe look into a 29er fork and a set of Funn upper and lower headsets for proper fitment if needed?

Thanks. The thing is, this is a 1" threaded fork with a quill stem. I put in a quill adapter so I can use a modern stem and bar. I don't recall seeing 29er rigid forks that don't cost as much as the bike did. 🙂 All things considered I'm better off finding tires that fit better.

Definitely you are correct. I could not find a rigid 29er fork without disk that did not cost less than $100…. ☹️

Maybe a Maxxis Pace tire? They are not as knobby….

Hi, I subsequently installed a set of 700c "all road" tires. :)
