Suggestions for 1x9 crankset with low Q factor please

Post by javatime »

I am completing a budget bike packing project based on an On One Scandal, and looking to improve on my current set up.

Currently running an Alvio triple with just a single middle ring, and the pedals are way apart. I do a lot of road miles from the train before hitting the trail, so need to look after my knees.

I am going to have a trial fit of my FSA Gossamer road compact this afternoon, but even if it works that limits me to 34T due to the 110 BCD.

Any suggestions towards the bottom end of the market, or possibilities from your spares box would be appreciated !

Need to be 170mm (or maybe 165 length) !

Sorry, misunderstanding - fair price for carbon, but currently after 1 x 9 not triple.

Many thanks
