Perfect!
Mudgards would require going down a tire size or two (35mm's on there now just barely fit.)

More importantly, if this had mudguards it would be hard to justify having another messy-day commuting bike built up fairly similarly (the Trek 620 commuter w/ mudguards, basket, rack and albatross bars is almost done.)
