Carbon Finish - 700 x 23-32c

it comes down to tyre width
if your tyres are between 18-23 buy the small
if they're between 23-32 buy the larger

i would take a guess that 23-32 is a more versatile choice ie if you decide to get wider tyres in the future.

Have a set of 23-32 for 23c shod bike and they give better protection than smaller ones (had previously) without looking at all big or oversized. There`re very neat really. Good sturdy mudgaurds that are pretty light -285g.

The lapierre rcr range is specifically designed to take proper mudguards.

Fitting raceblades is akin to using an umbrella in a convertible - it'll keep the rain off you but why not just put up the roof.
