Wow thats nuts. Its a bike for exploring and getting out on gravel...it isnt something elite.
Poster Marcus has it right- build it yourself if you need the niner. Since you would be just buying wheels, everything else is plug-n-play. A handful of specialized tools is all you need and if there is a coop/collective in Lincoln, they should have everything needed for use.
You could spec it exactly how you want. Youtube, sheldon brown, parktool, and this forum are all you need for any reference and help.
