Well, it is by me! Yeah I'm in a similar situation, could easily for 28s + guards at the back but 25s have almost nothing on the crown. Think these may be what you have? Might pop down to either Cycle PS or make the long trip to BC and see if they have a single front of it. I wouldn't want to lose the full coverage on the rear with one of these, but need the nifty solution at the front. Or I could by two sets and try and offload the remainders on here. Or I could do an build a bike around an odd component as is the style these days...

If you do go down, I basically go out the back and scour the rubbish heap/abandoned bikes/frames etc. I'm sure they will let you if you make a tip pot donation/go armed with booze.
The front Mudguard I have is similar to that, but its not sks, its a very very thin bracket that I have never seen before, I'll try and take a photo next week for you.

Try to get set the cable free of the shifters and move it manually. If it's not working it's the cuts or some dodgy bend, just open the ends with a pen or something and make sure there's no tight bends

Oh ta
Didn't know that the winter Rourke was coveted 🤗
Tbh I had very little clearance on the front of the Rourke (with 28's) which is odd as the clearance is enourmous at the back, I thought it was a fork switch at first, but the stamped numbers match up and Rourke can't tell me anymore detail than they did build it. But anyway, I hunted around the back of BC and in the bins for a while and eventually found a front mudguard that had a 'clip' for under the fork crown/brake bridge, so the mudguard didn't actually go under the crown, if that makes sense, just the clip did, and then the mudguard started again.
I think SKS did some a while ago perhaps?
Anyway an MTB conversion sounds wicked and I look forward to seeing it unfold!
