Looking for some help - I'm new to MTB/Gravel stuff so less familiar than in the road space.
I'm looking at a frame that has a 73mm Bottom Bracket and when I search the internet I think I'm see that this is a "MTB" sizing and that MTB cranks should work.
I'm well aware of the various options in the road space so not sure if I'm just not searching the right terms - and I know that the descriptions on Aliexpress can be light.
I've seen this that I'm guessing might work but no idea if 91.5-94.5mm is the correct dimension here. Also seen what looks like the same cranks with different Q-factors so not clear if that is a typo or an actual difference in the arm shape (or something else)?

Can anyone help with the above or point me to some resources so I can help myself?

What frame are you building up?

It is a Lauf Seigla.
Yes, I know there is a SRAM specific crankset for that which may be where I go, but I'm looking to understand what alternatives are out there.
Maybe the better question would have been - what alternatives are there for the SRAM DUB Wide Road crankset are out there?

Most gravel or road cranks come advertised as 68/73. They'll have spacers to fit 73mm shell.
