  1. I have this idea to hacksaw a nimbus 36"-frame so it will fit a 29"
    wheel. Bearing holders would have to be cut and rewelded and the fork
    legs have to be bent a little. I think it is doable. Do you think its
    doable? Worthwhile?

  3. Sounds like a bad idea... why not just run a 29" Wheel in it without
    cutting it?

  4. If you were looking into cutting and re welding your frame you might as
    well build a hunter style 29" frame. Get some thin tube 4130 and
    another short section that will fit a 25.4mm seatpost and buy two sets
    of main cap style bearing holders from UDC (one set to weld to the
    frame and the other set to be the actual bearing caps).
