If you see my chucker thread i'm selling my saint cranks which are very high quality cranks. Came with bottom bracket and will fit your bike no problem

I have sent you a pm.
Stick with single ring. See my build and it will save you lots of weight as will the saint cranks!
I also have DMR single speed kit with tensioner. Also pm'd
