bolt circle

see the 2 links below
they are for the same crankset

the first one says giro viti 110 mm
the second bolt circle 110 mm

so that is how it is called
Peer comment(s):

agree Christopher Burin : This is correct and preferable to circumference, though I have found "circumference" alone, as well.

circumference

Oxford Paravia Italian Dictionary definition is "girth" but "circumference" is the normal term used for cycling.
