Hopefully not at all 😆

Forgot to add, the other thing I did was significantly shorten the chain so it can just go round the two biggest rings at the same time. I figure less chain reduces the chances of chain suck?

As someone said earlier, preventing 'suck is better than limiting its damage but I suspect that the indent gives more clearance in a vulnerable area (that area on my 853 is now heavily armoured with innertube, webbing and zipties). If the old bridgeless stayed Inbreds are identical to the newer deep blue 456s except for the indent then it again is suggests that there's nothing 'odd' about the frames that promotes chainsuck, it's just that they're more vulnerable to damage if it occurs. I'm sure that Inbreds aren't the only frames that have suffered chainsuck damage.
