Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Post you Q-Factor

This has got to be one of the most poorly documented bike component specs. It would be great to establish a reliable database for those who are in need of a particular Q factor, or "tread" (the lateral distance between the pedal attachment points on a crankset).

Info to be included:

Crankset brand and model (ex., "Campagnolo Chorus")
Crankset type (ex., "Compact Carbon Double")
Crankset arm length (ex., "172.5)
Crankset Q factor (ex., "145mm")

Any improvements in the data request are welcome.

Thanks to all in advance.
