I notice on the REI site that they have a version which is supposed to work with 23-32mm tires:

REI sells several other fenders for road bikes. You might want to check out their options to see if there's something else which might work.

Finally, I agree with [MENTION=392125]79pmooney[/MENTION] that if you can find something suitable, a full length front fender will be much kinder to your shoes, legs, and (most importantly) drive train. If you ride with a group, I would consider a short rear fender unkind to your riding buddies.
