I have issues with heel strikes even on my trek 520 which had a chainstay of 450mm. I have big feet and I prefer to have the tip of my foot on the pedals.
Its gotten to the point where if I havent hit my pannier in a few mins I usually look back to see if my panniers have fallen off
Yes, the LHT has 460 mm chainstays.
