Mudguards for Giant OCR? (fully compact frame)

On the lookout for some mudguards for my OCR1 2004. This is the fully compact frame model, as opposed to the semi compact one that was brought in the year after.

Very little space apparent for putting mudguards, but if any of you knowledgeable types could point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful.

    I think you need to look at SKS race blades. Link given not as a recommendation about where to purchase, but because they have a good big picture.

    I have an OCR2T from the same year and you're right about the lack of clearance.

    Crud Road Racer Mk2 will probably work. Is there a 5mm gap between the tyre and brakes?

    Race Blades are evil.

    race blades are very good. Got mine a while ago just before the crud racer blades came out.

    Only thing to be wary of is that they will scrape the frame if you don't use the protection patches properly.
