foldie differences between 74/130 vs 100/130

Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Are you asking about crank bolt circle diameters? The only obvious difference is the 74 mm BCD will accept a smaller granny chainring then a 100(?) mm BCD. BTW, I've never heard of a crank with a 100 mm BCD.

No he is talking OLD for hub dimensions. Bikes like Brompton use a 74 mm front hub vs a 100 mm. on a non folder.

He already found his answer but the only advantage to the narrower hubs is the tighter the package when folded. I don't know if there is any difference in the ride.

Thanks for the clarification. The similarity between crank BCD's and hub OLD's was confusing.
