Many hybrid or 29” wheels will have the 135mm rear spacing and 700c rims you need, most will not be especially light or heavy. In my opinion you’d do well to keep your wheels and use lighter tires.

I definitely wouldn’t bother with disc brake converters.
Hello bboy314,

thank you very much for your reply. I will definitely look into the 29" wheel options in the future, as well as getting some lighter tires.
Also thank you for your advice as to not bother with disc brake converters. I really appreciate your feedback.

Very big thanks for explaining the 9x100 being the axle diameter x fork spacing!

Best regards!
