Ive been offered a fsa team issue carbon crankset for a good price. However it has the isis drive bb with Italian thread. Is there an alternative for bsa thread that will fit these cranks?

    ISIS are still available in both thread types, I was looking for one recently - there's plenty on ebay for a start.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    nope or they would not fit MTBs ;) and would only be good for a very small number of bikes with a poor BB design. ;)
