Triban RC100 -- mudguards
Decathlon is of little help on this issue.
Need full-coverage fenders.
Do any of the following mudguards fit the RC100?
The tire is 32mm wide.

No, I don't think so. Haven't got one but from the photos, as all of those rely on long drop brakes and clearance to go under the fork crown, they won't fit (happy to be wrong though if others want to chip in).
Have a look at these instead:

Second item can fit a maximum tire width of 25 mm.
If it helps, 35 mm wide mudguards fit but accomodates a max tire width of 28 mm.

Mudguards need to fit at least 32 mm wide tires.0 -

Can you really not get Cruds shipped internationally?

The four SKS fenders I listed are the only feasible choices right now.0 -
Londoncommuter has given you the reason why none of the 4 you linked to will work, they won't fit under the brake calipers.
If you want proper mudguards you're going to need to get rid of the 32mm tyres and use either 25 or 28mm tyres with something like these guards in their 35mm guise:

Have a look at the clip on section of here. You do not have clearance or mounting points for "proper" mudguards so no good moaning that ones I mentioned before aren't perfect...…..

Really not sure why you suggested completely unsuitable items and then just ignore the advice we're giving you. You're right, you have the bike, not us so you know best.0

The trouble is that we're not saying things that the OP wants to hear.
OP, given Decathlon stores are now open again, why not pop down to one with your bike and get them to advise on mudguards. It's probably a query they get a lot.0 -
Need suggestions from someone with access to bike and mudguards.
Listed mudguards that I can buy online but cannot be returned.
First sentence of first post: "Decathlon is of little help on this issue."
Appreciate your attempts to help.0 -
All the different SKS models you listed are completely standard "proper mudguards" and Decathlon will easily be able to confirm in 10 seconds that the bike won't fit them and you'll need "clip on style".0

Did you read the Q&A? Someone even asks which guards it can take and they advise these clip on ones!

They look a bargain by the way.0 -
I need full coverage fenders.
Prefer actual experience rather than eyeballing photos.
Again, thank you for your help even though I was aware of all your recommendations.0 -
Where did you get to with this? Any luck?0
