To further the mechanical advantage string...
The load needs to go through the dropout eventually, but, I agree that
shortening the relatively small diameter rack stays is probably a good
idea. I don't know where the rack bosses are on your seat stays, but
if it puts the rack stays at 45
If it's not broke don't fix it.

I've had the Toprack on my Quickbeam setup with the long struts

The mechanical advantage on the strut side is that any beam's bending
stiffness is proportional to the inverse of the cube of its length.
Take any beam of any material, cut it in half, and it becomes 8 times
stiffer in bending.
I think it looks way better too, but that's just an opinion.

Nice to know it not only looks better, it is way stronger as well... :-)
