Is there anywhere I can get them here in the homeland without paying a fortune? Just how light are these bad boys and are they plenty stiff to take some abuse. Also im considering XTR cranks but i dont think i can make the new ones work on a 4 bolt MRP WC2? Will I have to go with the old XTRs to make it work? I was kinda hoping for the integrated BB thing for stiffness. I race a lot and do some hucking and such but im only 130ibs and like stuff to be light. Any other crank suggestions? I might go all out and just get saints but im not sure yet?

thanks homies

thanks
they are regular ranks available for squaretaper or ISIS BBs, you need an extra BB :)
btw i reeally like my RS7 cranks!

if this idea about the integrated BB appeals so much to you.
Ever thought about those raceface diabolus cranks?

Don't forget that the old XTR's have an integrated spider. If you want to run a chainguide/bashgaurd you will need an after market spider from someone [...like middleburn ;) ].

If someone [Brian?] has a price on middleburns here in the US, please throw it out - been thinking about them for awhile now.

You can have any shop call IBEX imports in Portsmouth, NH. They are the importer of Middleburn into the USA. They also import USE and a coulpe other brands I believe, great guys.
