These type of mud guards are a universal fit the only things you need to be careful of are 1) the correct wheel size 2) they will fit between the front forks and rear drop outs Cud Catcher do similar type that are removable and are held on by a zip tie i use the crud ones and i find them very good as they only fit with clips etc and dont damage your bike both are available from Evans
I can't speak for your particular bike but alternative ones are SKS Raceblades or Crud Roadracer guards. Both are very good though the SKS can rattle and move a bit whereas the Crud guards have a neat little brush on the inside that holds the rim central very successfully.
The rear mudguard will fit but the front won't as this bike has suspension, the forks are not supplied with holes to secure mudguards. Try the Topeak Defender M1 Front Mudguard and Raleigh Flinger Rear Clip-On Mudguard.
Your mudguard come in two sizes, 18x25 and 28x25. I have a Trek road bike, and my wife have a Specialize Dolce road bike. Can you give me advice which size should we go for
I was wondering whether the mudguards fit on the 1.5 roadbike of Trek. This because the roadbike has fender mounts and these are the only bontrager fenders that would seem suitable to use on a road bike. It would seem strange for trek to put fender mounts on bikes that do not fit their own fenders.
If they would fit, two further questions: 1) Would the 18-25 version actually fit the 25 on a roadbike or does it have too little clearance? 2) Is there a problem of hitting the fender with your foot and might the crud road racer be a tighter and better fit on a racing bike?
I do believe these mudguards should fit your bike fine and you should not have any difficulties installing these. Your two other suggestion I believe would also be suitable for your bike but it would come down to personal preference on which ones you would like to attach to your bike
