What mudguards will work with my bike?

[Milena]

I have a Carerra crossfire 3 2023.

Tires are 700 x 42c.

At the front, there's no thing on the wheel skewer nut qr thing for mounting stays.
I think they're called eyelets at the bottom of the fork.

There's rubber grommets on the suspension forks, behind which are screw threads, that requires an adapter to fit mudguards.

There's about 46mm clearance in width under that thing that is part of the suspension fork above the front tire.

Google search shows for a 42c tire, a 58-60mm mudguard is needed.

What mudguards will work with my bike?

I want ideally Matt black, not gloss.
Maximum coverage with rear flap if possible.


Thanks

From the spec: https://www.halfords.com/bikes/hybr...d-bike-2020---grey---s-m-l-frames-346094.html
"Mudguards and pannier mounts are fitted as standard, making this the perfect set up for comfort and adventure."

Halfords should be able to fit your bike with something suitable

Nope. They're utterly useless. And if you look on their site, they don't even sell full guards suitable for my bike. If any at all.

That sort of bike with suspension fork and fat tyres aren’t designed for the types of fixed mudguards found on bikes with a rigid fork and slick tyres like tourers, you’ll need the clip on types. Ask your bike charity for suggestions

Something like these are designed for hybrids with suspension fork
