Maybe, but i already have brand new 35s and really would like to run with them. And it's not the VO's that are the problem as such, they're big enough to hold the tyres, it's more that the frame doesn't take the VO guards without deforming them a bit.
Ideally, I'd like new forks for the Pomp, so may be able to sort the front clearance issues that way. For the rear, I think I may be able to work around it by moving the hub back a little in the drop outs to pull the tyre away from the guard at the point of the brake bridge/wishbone and compensate by pushing the rear of the guards out a little more.
