I don't know if taking your fenders off your Quickbeam will work, but I think putting fenders on my Riv works here in Tucson. We've had 1.66" of rain year-to-date.
I had a set of Honjo hammered fenders around that I'd taken off my Paramount Moustache bike after I fitted some Campy Record sidepulls on the bike. The rear brake Campy sidepull only fits with a drop-bolt (originally used by Schwinn to fit this type of brake to Paramounts that didn't have full frame customization for sidepulls). The drop- bolt has a protrusion on the underside that leaves too little space to fit a Honjo fender. So, I fitted the Riv up with the fenders (you don't see many bikes with fender in Tucson, but I liked the way they look).
