What is the difference between Struts?

I am looking at Softail "style" frames, both with a 34 degree rake and 2 inch stretch. The only difference between the two is one has Radius Struts and the other has Straight Struts. what is the difference? Thanks!

Radius struts should follow the curve of the rear fender, while straight struts should appear similar to a stock set-up.
