Question for 254, 22, 968, 60, or 22

Your frame side rails are only 1" wide. Your pillow blocks are on either side, so your bearings are roughly 1" apart. I know it works just fine. But please explain to me why you are able to have such a minimal distance between the bearings. I'd like to know not just that it works, but why it works. Thanks so much!
