Cranks can be shortened for medical reasons using shorteners such as Ortho Pedal. Unicycle cranks vary in length to accommodate different unicycle wheel sizes, and different unicycling disciplines. As almost all unicycles are ungeared, crank length is a major factor in determining how much force is transmitted to the wheel.
Crankshaft, pistons and connecting rods for a typical internal combustion engine Marine engine crankshafts from 1942 The crankshaft is located within the engine block and held in place via main bearings which allow the crankshaft to rotate within the block. [3]
Q factor is a function of both the bottom bracket width (axle length) and the cranks. Bottom brackets axles vary in length from 102mm to 127mm. Mountain bike cranks are typically about 20mm wider than road cranks. [6] A larger Q factor (wider tread) will mean less cornering clearance (while pedaling) for the same bottom bracket height and crank ...

A crank is an arm attached at a right angle to a rotating shaft by which circular motion is imparted to or received from the shaft.
With a one-piece (also called Ashtabula) crank and bottom bracket, the spindle and crank arms are a single piece. The bottom bracket shell is large to accommodate removal of this S-shaped crank. Bearing cups are pressed into the bottom bracket shell. The crank holds the cones, facing in; adjustment is made via the left-threaded non-drive side cone.
For rod length 6" and crank radius 2" (as shown in the example graph below), numerically solving the acceleration zero-crossings finds the velocity maxima/minima to be at crank angles of ±73.17615°. Then, using the triangle law of sines, it is found that the rod-vertical angle is 18.60647° and the crank-rod angle is 88.21738°. Clearly, in ...
The crank arm to BB shaft interfaces that are splined include ISIS Drive, Truvativ GXP and Howitzer, Shimano's Octalink and many others, most of which are proprietary. Some cranksets feature modular spiders, where torque is transmitted through splines.
