Can anyone tell me if 700c and 29er rims are in fact the same size(as regards fitting tyres)?

    They are. From the Salsa Delgado page:
    700c version of the Delgado, excellent choice for cyclocross and 29ers

    29er rims do tend to be wider than the average road rim. Once you start getting into touring rims (like a Mavic A319), you should be ok.
