Road Slicks for a 29er

29 = 700c, so take your pick. Probably best going no narrower than 28c although 23s or 25s will fit fine. Conti Gatorskins are a good cheap option. Or GP 4Seasons or 4000s for a better quality tyre.

Good tyres but will break your thumbs/tyre levers when it comes to fitting. I've got a pair of 25c Gatorskins on my 29er wheels on my road bike.

They were a tight fit and needed a bit of soapy water but I got both on in about 10 minutes

Yes, No and it Depends.

Yes you should use the correct size innertubes but.

No you might be able to use your 29er tubes but it might be a struggle to get all the tube inside when your fitting it and you might end up with a wobbly tyre.

Depends on how big your tubes are if they are monster truck 2.4s forget about it if they are say 1.75 to 2.00 you'll probably get away with it.

Agreed, you can get away with about 1/4" out (say 1.75-2.15 in a 1.5") but not anything MTB inside a 25mm, just not worth even trying.
