    Deputy Editor Tara Seplavy and Test Editor Dan Chabanov talk about crank length, available options, and whether you should change to a shorter length.

  3. Stroke ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_ratio

    The large size/width of the combustion chamber at ignition can cause increased inhomogeneity in the air/fuel mixture during combustion, resulting in higher emissions. The reduced stroke length allows for a shorter cylinder and sometimes a shorter connecting rod, generally making oversquare engines less tall but wider than undersquare engines of ...

  5. Q factor (bicycles) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor_(bicycles)

    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 ...

  6. Crankset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankset

    Crank length is measured from the center of the pedal spindle to the center of the bottom bracket spindle or axle. The larger bicycle component manufacturers typically offer crank lengths for adult riders from 165 to 180 mm (6.5 to 7.1 in) long in 2.5 mm (0.098 in) increments, with 170 mm (6.7 in) cranks being the most common size.

  7. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    60° V angle: This design results in a compact engine size, and the short crankshaft length reduces the torsional vibrations. Rotating plane imbalances. The staggering of the left and right cylinder banks (due to the thickness of the connecting rod and the crank web) makes the reciprocating plane imbalance more difficult to be reduced using ...

  8. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

    For this case, the crank arm will be referred to as L 2, and the follower link will be referred to as L 3. With all in-line slider-crank mechanisms, the stroke is twice the length of the crank arm. Therefore, given the stroke, the length of the crank arm can be determined. This relationship is represented as: L 2 = (ΔR 4) max ÷ 2

  9. Mean piston speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_piston_speed

    The comparison of mean piston speed (black line) with real piston speed (color lines). Diagram shows one stroke from BDC to TDC. Revolution = 1.000 min-1, stroke = 88 mm. The connecting rod ratio l/r varies: 3 - red, 4 - green, 5,5 - blue. The mean piston speed is the average speed of the piston in a reciprocating engine. It is a function of ...
