Not to be a Debbie Downer or anything, but I own the same model Tourist, and I highly doubt that V-shaped rim will accept anything as wide as a 32mm tire, much less a 35mm. It will probably only accept 28mm tops.

Since I'm much heftier than Puck (220lbs), I ordered these for a larger spoke count (they only really accept about a 25mm wide tire; MAYBE a 28mm...I ended up putting 25mm RiBMo's on them), and to better adjust to my height, I put on some beach cruiser bars from the parts bin. I hate to keep posting this pic, but here's my current setup:



A lot of your discomfort probably comes from A) being on an aluminum frame (they take bumps a bit more stiffly than steel), and B) being a "rookie" of sorts to riding like that. Not sure if you're able to dodge the potholes, as a lot of times riders get sort of pigeon-holed into those situations where it's either "eat pothole" or "eat car grill". For situations where I know the bumps will be bad, I usually lift off the seat a little and loosen my knees/ankles just a tiny bit to absorb the shock instead of tensing up. For what it's worth, part of my commute (about 1.7 miles of 7.5) is on roughly-paved gravel, and I feel the difference in every ride when I decide to take the Tourist over my regular steel Racer.

The Tourist is a decent bike with modifications, but lots of people L-O-V-E the Trek FX series.
