Some 700c (27‐inch) wheels can be accommodated but only on a case by case basis. I measured the mountain bike rack I have on their now and it has a 330mm (13 inch) high deck, and that leaves very little room for a fender. I spent hours googling for other racks but they are either too expensive or only available in black. The search continues.
Following up, I got one of the Wald 215 racks and just installed it. It works great on a bike with 27" wheels. Plenty of space for fenders too.
