Popfly have a look through the discussions below/above. It's been well summed up by other pinkbike users that the forces while using the rack are insignificant compared to actual riding forces.

There's actually no welding on the entire product. Every component is either punched, laser cut, or cnc drilled then formed and secured by fasteners.

There is nothing "cheap" about the materials used in the construction (example the lower plates are QT-100 100,000psi yeild).

Steel is used in this application for a variety of reasons: formabilty, robustness at fastener holes, and infinite fatigue limit being just a few of them.

you actually can tilt the rack to 45 degrees. Simply pull the pin, move it to the intermediate position, then swing the rack until the rack lands on the pin. http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/7200846/
