These are for mounting to a BMX style Bottom Bracket.
You can get Euro Sized BMX BB's but they are really expensive as the cartrdges in them have to be so tiny.
You will need to use a BMX style chainwheel with a single bolt hole to mount to the crank. Or purchase a separate 'spider' to use 4-5 bolt chainrings.
It is not really the kind of crank setup where you get to choose a spindle length/chainline. On a mtb just use spacers on the freehub body to get chain alignment correct.

I think that's Pigmy gussets you're looking for...

you can get euro bb's for these and they aren't hideously expensive, loads of mtbers run 3 piece bmx style cranks.
they use a 48 spline axle, and you can probably space out the cranks a bit to get a better chainline.
Alright all - I'm a bit stuck... i've been looking at some gusset pigmy's for my single speed MTB - what do I need to do to mount these... they're outside my square taper/track crank comfort zone.
It's a 73mm shell and I need roughly a 53mm chainline (ie standard single speed chainline)
Any help much appreciated, especially if you can tell me exactly what I need. It's these cranks-
