Forgive the possibly stupid question, but do those tyres come up bang on 23mm, or are they a little wider? At least there's space for mudguards if it's chainstays only!

Not a stupid question at all, each different tyre seems to come up slightly different - my 25mm Vittoria corsa are 27.6mm on wide rims, my 23mm Michelin axion carbon are 24.5mm on the same rim...
yes I could fit guards to the parlee but that doesn’t feel right somehow on a carbon frame... 🤷♂️ Is it just me?
I’ve tried fitting PDW to the enigma but it’s very tight under the brake bridge which means I probably need to modify the guards a little bit, but I’d prefer not to so I can move them on to other bikes as and when etc...

Yeah, odd quirk of the frame - can’t get wider than 23mm on 23mm wide rims between the chainstays - that and the bottle cage bolts on the seat tube are really low... bloody good frame though!
