I had the same thought when I assembled my BF NWT front rack for the first time, but I've never had any issues with it in use. I tend to pack lighter than the average loaded bike tourist, but I use the bike for around town hauling missions that have gotten quite heavy [ie. tins from grocery store, beer, etc...].
I'm glad you enjoyed your tour...
