Bit of this, bit of that
OK, you said the spokes would not stretch or compress, and I was pointing out that all load on them is torque in one direction or another- and they are equally strong/weak in all directions to torque/bending. A point you seem unable to understand. They are only potentially ever in tension when the deck is starting up, once at speed, no way no how.
The reference to the lack of a centre point is in response to your comment about them being arranged tangentially to platter rotation and equidistant and equiangular to each other and the bearing centre, and making rotation of the sub-chassis relative to the motor in the vertical axis all but impossible. My point being that they have an exactly equal effect on both the vertical and horizontal compliance of the subchassis.
Their locations around the bearing means nothing to anything as the bearing is not the centre of the sub-chassis mass once it is in motion stimulated by footfall or the motor- the motion centre point is actually a small arc between the bearing and the motor and probably sits on the edge of a circle linking the three spokes.
This mod will equally affect both vertical and horizontal compliance of the suspension equally because the subchassis does not rotate around the centre of the three spokes (the main bearing) and that is the point I was making. That it will introduce as many problems as it ameliorates.
