don't think of it in crankset size, think of the tire size you want to use. Anything over 45mm is mtn and requries a 52mm chainline. 38-44 is the trick, this could be mt. but a lot of cross/gravel cranks. What dirve train impacts the use. 32-35 is definite cross territory and 46-48mm chainline should work. Good luck
