Simple fenders/mudguards for 14" wheels

My 14" folding bike comes with factory fenders. I like their shape and the way they're installed, simple one-screw-installation.

However, they are too short, especially the rear one. My back and bottom of my backpacks get muddy easily in a rainy day.

I've googled the whole morning. Nothing was found for 14" wheels that fits my need. They are either not one-screw installation or too big/straight to fit my bike nicely. As a result, I turn to our forum for help as usual. Attached please find my bike's pic so that you'd have some ideas.

Ideally, what I am looking for are a pair of fenders look similar to my current ones but a bit longer and fit 14" wheels well with right curve. Thanks, my ext'd biker family!

I've never seen 14" fenders that are circular myself. I have these on a Dahon Dove and they work OK. They can be removed quickly too leaving just the steel bracket on the bike.

The fenders of the 14" Nanoo folding bike might be worth a look - just the rear one couldn't be mounted properly by using just one bolt.

Hi fold,
well, shiny they are of course, but it means 12 instead of 14 inch.
One bolt installation seems not recommended on these, too.

You told us to search for 14" fenders with the right curve and preferred simple one-screw-installation.

But the shiny ones of ebay are for 12".
And not suitable for one-screw-installation (my meaning).

Thanks for the follow-up @Blackstrida_A_
I got what you meant at first place. That emoji was to show my frustration. It's really hard to find what I need.
