If the chain stay is a fixed length and the bottom bracket shell moves left and right, wouldn’t that mean that the distance between it and the hub actually increases under load since it would be the hypotenuse of the triangle it would make? The distance can never be less than in the unoaded state correct? So long as the chain stay isn’t under compression.
