100-110C looks normall to me when driving in stop and go trafic or when under heavy load, but there are some things you could check:
  • Aux fans working in the wrong direction? They need blow air to the radiator and start on high speed at about 105C.
  • I thermostat in goog condition?
  • Expansion tank pressure cap with good seal?
  • Have you drained the coolant recently? There could be air traped in the system.
  • Coolant leaks?
  • Fan clutch, but you said it's good.
  • Radiator might be bad in the inside (cloged).
If you haven't yet, I would start by installing a new pressure cap and thermostat. Those are cheap and are very important.

If you have no mayo inside the coolant tank, you head and head gasket are ok.

I hope this helps.
