Whether some sort of guard or bumper mount that is quickly and easily removable (or doesn't inhibit replacing wheels) can be added is a challenge left up to the individual team.
How often do teams typically change wheels throughout a season? I've never had occasion to replace a wheel, but my teams often don't use the popular traction materials that wear down with time.
