Both SKS and Zefal make push-fit fenders (mounted like the Apex) but with shape & function more like a conventional Planet Bike type fender.
I originally bought the 20" "recumbent" Apex fenders, which provided no protection at all. The 26" Apex fenders (which I should have bought) that Peter recommends would fare much better, although definitely not as well as the Planet Bike ones. Don't worry about pushing the seatpost down on the PB fender....they're flexible and practically indestructible....real quality stuff.
