Both wheel size and wheelbase

And fitting 26" wheels to a 29'er wouldnt work -- unless you dont like to have a brake - but the bike is physically too big -- aesthetically it would be horrible , even if it were hypothetically a disc brake machine or something. Im also leery of what putting 26" wheels on a bike designed around 29" would do to the bottom bracket height. a pedal strike on a pump track would not be fun
