Cranks, just about anything that fits your budget will work. Just do some research into the gear combination that you think will suit your type of riding I guess.
the thing that makes SS so easy with a freehub rear wheel is that you can just play around in any gear combination your chainrings/cassette will give you until you get to one that you like. Just a matter of shortening the chain, removing the chainring you don't need and using spacers on the freehub from there.
