The brake bridge was the limiter on the old PC - if they haven't moved it up by 10mm - then still the bottleneck for bigger tyres.
Thuekr-
Damn! That makes it even worse (if they haven't moved the seatstay bridge)...
Think I'm being a bit harsh... Nobody outside the company knows whether Omniumgate was Dolan's own doing (inadvertently), or if it was the result of a change of manufacturer (in the Far East), or the existing one choosing to make the chainstays differently.
There will be a technical drawing somewhere, that was either signed-off with the new dimensions, or was/has always been left dimensionless, allowing the manufacturer to exploit its ambiguity.

Then I presume the new ones will take larger than that. They changed the forming of the chainstay to accommodate more rubber, which is why Omniums won't fit. A dumb decision IMO.
