Ah sorry, I meant that there is more clearance between the mudguard and the tyre underneath the brake, or in other words, the clip-on mudguard is 'thicker'. Probably due to the slightly silly design whereby the thickest part of the mudguard (the joint between the two halves) is situated in the area where it needs to be thinnest (under the brake).
