How does storage size affect loading?

How does the storage size affect how loading works?.

As an example, in the below snippet, a 22 bit vector is separated into two groups of 11 bits. Each of these groups has the same pattern, storing the decimal number 1027.

    let vec22 = bitvec![u8 /* usize */, Msb0; 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, /* next */ 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1]; // 1027, 1027
    let chunks = vec22.chunks(11);

    let numbers = chunks
        .into_iter()
        .map(|chunk| {
            let number: usize = chunk.load();
            println!("{} {}", chunk, number);
            number
        })
        .collect::<Vec<_>>();

When the storage size is usize, the load method returns the expected 1027. When set to u8, I can't seem to find a relationship between the printed numbers and the bit patterns,

[1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1] 896 // expected 1027
[1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1] 112 // expected 1027

How does changing the storage size affect these numbers?
