MSRP <http://www.whiteind.com/suggestedretailprice.html> for the White Industries WBC crankset with two chanrings is $340, so a little less expensive than the new Compass Rene Herse crankset, which in turn is quite a bit cheaper than the modern TA Pro 5 Vis, which sells for about $440 online.
Of course, if the goal is to run a double crankset with a chainring combo like 46/30, probably the least expensive option is to inquire on the iBOB list or watch eBay for an old Ritchey<http://www.bikepro.com/products/cranks/ritchey.html> Logic Compact or Suntour<http://www.bikepro.com/arch_products/cranks/a-suntour-crank.html> Micro Drive crankset, and then hunt for the 94mm BCD chainrings you want. As you now, these were very nice cranksets -- silver, cold forged, made in Japan by Sugino.
