Saints are a totally superb crank. IF I ever managed to knacker my SLXs i'm getting a set of them, no messing. They almost indestructable.

I'd seriously consider the slx crank if they are in you price bracket. I'm a big lad and find them rigid as hell... Really good value for money.

It says "BLACKSPIRE Freeride Cranks Only" Does that mean its just the crankarms, or will the 3 gears be there aswell?
Tempted to go for these, then get a Bashgaurd to replace the 3rd gear.

I don't know, but it does look that way. You should drop them an email to find out. Don't forget that you may need a new bottom bracket too. The shimano hollowtech 2 cranks come with the rings and the bottom bracket too. Which adds to the great value of them.

Can't you just replace the BB?
Not sure about your chain line but these do 68 & 73 http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=40823
