Gender different cranksets?

[Drosentreter]

Is there a way to tell a men’s fauber crankset from a women’s fauber crankset? Does it have anything to do with having or not having the dogleg on the sprocket side?

Normally it is the length of the crank arms. V/r Shawn

Thank you very much. What would you say would be the length difference, or the length of each of them.

Generally the men’s measure about 7” and the ladies about 6 1/2”

Ladies bicycles often had smaller sprockets. https://thecabe.com/forum/threads/1...acturing-bike-catalog-la-porte-indiana.52663/

If from adult bike, your 24t skiptooth sprocket in pic probly from women's. Arm length probly around 6.5" center-center.

Something to consider is that the Fauber cranksets were fairly proprietary at the ToC and for a while afterwards, predating any standardization movement.
The sizes of holes and threads and bearings and cups and interface dimensions may be peculiar, and perhaps different depending upon the years.

Also, a 24-tooth chain ring sprocket might have been used on some juveniles models.
