I don't really have a favorite, although I have a disproportionately
large number of Zeus cranks (120mm BCD) in service right now. I like the
way they look, and the fact that they accommodate tooth counts down to
36T. But I also have TA (5-pin), Ofmega (144/102/74mm), Stronglight
(86mm), and Sugino Mighty Tour (110/74mm), SR Royal (144mm) cranks in
use as well.

I only have vintage cranks.
> 3. Do you like doubles or triples? Favorite gearing?
Double, triples, and singles. Biggest ring is 50T; most of the bikes have large rings between 47T and 50T, my fixed gear has 43T; inner rings 26T to 42T.
