Why such a long quill? Is the front of the bike way too small for you? Personally, I would not feel comfortable with a quill that long inserted anywhere close to the minimum distance and would worry about too much stress on the steer tube. It doesn't matter whether it's a Burley or a piece of junk - the steerer tube was not designed for a quill that long.
