I had an early orange Waterford canti-braked single top tube Hillborne in the early 2010s. The tradeoff of the stable high-speed handling was that the bike needed to be leaned really far to make a quick tight turn. The combination of this, the low bottom bracket, and my love of pedaling through turns meant I got A LOT of pedal strike. The most of any bike I've owned. And this was with either 165 or 167.5mm cranks (can't remember which).
This is not to disparage the bike at all, rather to simply state that my example was not a good candidate for pedaling through tight turns.
