I'd have to check my NineTwelve when I get home to see if it is set up that way.

I would say that conservatively 70% of 110 BCD cranks I've come across are triple ready, almost every Sugino or Sakae crank I have in that size is drilled and tapped, and many of the ones that aren't have the "boss" they just weren't drilled.
