What do you mean? As far as I know the distros that FE has on their site are all 64bit. Otherwise I don't think they could be compiled for ARMv8 ARCH.

Armbian is always 64bit on 64bit capable devices.

Mean that Lubuntu is x64 but it has x32 repos, where to take x64 repos?

This is good idea.
What about lubuntu x64 and x64 repos?

You can't install Linux for Intel x64 hardware. Full potential can only be achieved with arm64 (aarch64) distro.
