Just from your picture you're right on the cusp of not enough room on the front. Downsizing your tyres just a bit would give you plenty of room - I've done several 26" mudguards that go under v-brakes no problem.
Also, I'd throw my recommendation behind SKS 26" 65mm:

Used to have one parked outside my old office, and yes, it's a luxury city car for people who can't abide being seen in a Toyota.
They made a very silly V8 version too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9N5s1z7-JnI

Desperate for an organised plumber in SE, need some radiators replaced before an central system is refilled. I've contacted a few but just get ghosted when asking for a date.

I was just thinking that, but a weird faceswap replacement?

Down this road today - my Elite Fly bottle valves are degrading and need replacement. They say that sunshine can affect the material - I suppose it's a good thing I live in England where it's not sunny.
They sell spares but shipping is €25 for two valves... I can get five new bottles for that price!
