I transferred my road bike components onto my kinesis tripster but the Sram chainset was not wide enough and the crank arms rubbed on the rear chainstays

I replaced it with an xt triple chainset (I dont use the granny) I had spare. It works fine but I have to put 2 spacers on the non drive side and 1 on the drive side.

The chain line isn't great so I've been thinking of changing it again.

Does anyone know what the q factor is on a cx50?

Would an xt double give me a better chainline (I. E. Smaller q factor)

Thanks
