Are there any split-mudguards that will fit a bike (Van Nicholas Yukon) WITH eyelets and 700 x 28 mm tyres? There is not enough clearance to get full large mudguards under my brake calipers (up to 25 mm tyres are fine), but I do have eyelets front and back.
I can only find this type which attach to the forks with a strap. I presume these would be inferior to those attached to the eyelets?

Re: Mudguards for 28 mm tyres
Not eyelet mounted but better that strap fixings.

I reckon that if you give St John St Cycles a call, they could help. They stock virtually everything and anything. https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/

Re: Mudguards for 28 mm tyres
According to SKS and reviews, max width is 25 mm. Have you managed to fit them with 28 mm Gazza?gmac wrote: ↑08 Aug 2017 12:39Not eyelet mounted but better that strap fixings.

No sorry, I've only tried 25mm.

Re: Mudguards for 28 mm tyres
Gave up looking. Given the move to wider tyres, seems there is a big hole in the market.
I have hopefully solved it by managing to squeeze an old pair of wider sks mudguards under the brake caliper.
