You won't be able to change wheel size because the brake bosses won't allow that, and they don't have disc mounts.
What don't have disc mounts? The wheels? Sorry, I'm confused now.

Since 700c diameter is 622mm while 26" is 559mm, putting a 700c wheel in a 26" frame will cut roughly 31.5mm off tyre capacity of the 2.1", theoretically leaving only 21mm or so for tyre...
Sorry when you said LHT disc I didn't realise you were talking about the Disc Trucker. Tyre clearance of the Disc Trucker is the same as the LHT, so still 2.1" for smaller frames.

everything I've read on that has always been a case of, don't know if it will work until you try it.
Sorry Lulubel I didn't mean to sidetrack this as much, by the way what size stem do you currently run?
I refer you back to the Thorn Audax, which may be too big, it's on the cusp but it has everything for a do it all steel bike which will give you a lovely ride feel.
