Hi everyone!
Does anybody have an idea which brand makes 145mm cranks with the lowest Q-factor?
Upon searching the internet, I found these:
BBK 145mm - 152mm
Croder Spirit 145mm - 156mm
Appleman 2XR 145mm - 150mm
Jcob Short Cranks 145mm - 145mm
These figures will most likely change a bit depending on the bottom bracket.
I'm asking because I need a total stance width of around 244mm. This is based on the the Purely Custom adjustable cranks (approx. Q-factor of 136mm) and Favero Assioma (54mm per side).
I'm currently using the BBK 145mm (Q-factor 152mm) and Favero Assioma (54mm), which would have a total stance width of 260mm.
I'm thinking of getting the Jcob Short Cranks 145mm (Q-factor 145mm), and use pre-Wahoo Speedplay pedals (50mm) which would yield a total stance width of 245mm. The only thing for me to get power output would be to use a Spider-based PM. This option is quite sound but the cost is quite steep for me.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
Thank you!
