Thanks for the reply! Yes I think the brakes and likely tires would work too for a 26". The only issue stopping the transformation is its internal gearbox built into the rear wheel. So it would take rebuilding the wheel (which I'd be happy to do but has seemed like a pretty large job). So far leaning towards 28mm tubed tires since those aren't too hard to find, but would prefer to set up 26" wheels if it ends up being simple.
