Ha, it’s always a voyage of discovery fitting guards.
I’m about to try to second stays to some 26x60mms, as I find the flex on rough ground a bit sloppy. TBF I’ve never been convinced that single stayed mudguards are much cop. Would love a steel guard manufacturer to do a double-stay version - I guess the trick would be a new paired grip-clip thing at the boss.
I’m going to double up with the single clips. Rear will attach to rack, front will be vertical to support long front extension (and possibly support light there).

Not rode the bike yet with the fenders mounted, but I did already think about the flex – and definitely needed to use a l-bracket mounted on the rear brake thread of the frame, to get the fender higher and especially more round like the tyre.
Good idea to use two stays! Hm, maybe I'll add also a second pair on both, need to have a look where to mount it on the frame.

Hm, yes, too late, I haven't found an option on the GB shop (got the [black 26" long] set directly there). It isn't that big deal, fits also good now.
On the plus side: they just look awesome, and the size is perfect. Not so good: the fender stays holes could fit better to the fenders holes (fixed and drilled); the hardware bolts may be A2 steel, but I used other ones; some of the washers are too big for my taste; as mentioned in the shop no l-bracket included.
