Hi,
I have a rim brake Kinesis 4S, currently running 700 x 25's.
Now the winter is on the way I need to stick a set of full mudguards on it - does anyone have any recommendations please? I may also move to running a 28 width tyre on them, so the guards would need to be able to take this.
I was thinking of the SKS Bluemels ones.

    Good choice if you have the room to fit them.

    Have a look at the Kinesis Fend Off guards. They fit my GFti V2 perfectly, absolutely no rattles or rubbing once set up.

    I use SKS bluemels guards on my K 4S, along with Aksium Elites sporting Conti 4S x 25mm tyres, plenty of clearance and no rattles at all.
    Very pleased with the SKS guards.

    Noticed you may go to 28mm tyres, the guards are 35mm, so that shouldn't be an issue. I think 28mm may be tight for the frame/brakes? Maybe not impossible, as I haven't tried, but tight?
