I was hoping for 28s and fenders, the frame will do that no problem but I'm not sure on the fork yet

What's the fork A2C? I nearly bought this at one point which apparently takes 38mm so should easily do a 28mm with guards, 380mm A2C. Only road A2C one I could find.

Usual caveat of the PX product descriptions being completely divorced from reality though.

367mm.
If I was willing to go to 380, I'd have gotten a futura gravel fork which is 382, clearance for 40 and fender mounts but I wanted a road fork.

The brief was fast road bike. What I didn't want was a gappy endurance bike with space for way bigger tyres than I'll ever want to use. I have other bikes for that
