Luggage for 16" folder with heelstrike issues

Here's the sitch: I've been having heelstrike issues with the trunk rack on my Curve. Here's a decent photo that will probably show the setup better than I ever could:



Even holding the side pockets in with velcro doesn't take care of the issue.

I'd take this little bike on a short tour in a heartbeat if I could only get a decent trunk rack on it without either pedalling with my feet in an awkward position or wearing a backpack. Does anyone know if there's (a) a narrow, tall trunk rack out there, or (b) a slightly taller rack that'll fit onto a 16" folder?

I'd be okay with the bike being a little bit larger on the train.

I may have been through this here before, Sorry, I'm getting pretty frustrated about all this.
