As mentioned the crank arms flare so for road use you need a short bottom bracket.

I fitted it as a 94/58 triple on a steel road frame using a sealed Tange 103mm bottom bracket, and chainline was fine for road use: 45mm to the middle chainring, the inner chainring clearing the frame by about 2mm.

95/58 cranksets all seem to have the flared cranks and need a short BB. I also have an STX RC and a Specialized, same flare. Using the short BB saves a few grams.

They seem to be a good road solution if you like small chainrings and you have a set of good condition chainrings. I don't think it is easy to buy a triple set that is pinned and ramped
