What is the BCD of Campagnolo's 5-arm G.S. crank set? What is the smallest Chainring that will fit in that crank? Where can I find such chainrings?

144, and 41. All over the world.

Or, some later "touring" ones were 116 and 35. Much less common, though, so chainrings are not so plentiful for those. I only have 52 and 53 left now.

All of that old Campagnolo stuff is junk, though. You may want to go with a Zeus or Nervar crank instead. ;-)
