The good news is most local bike shops have all sorts of quality used road cranksets which can be had for cheap and used on your conversion.
If you were thinking of getting the Amelias anyway, Eighthinch has a conversion kit that includes a crankset, bottom bracket, chain, and that wheelset (incl. tires, tubes, cog and lockring).
That would probably be your cheap and easy solution.

I was kind of eyeballing those earlier.. I suppose that would be a good option. Should i be concerned about fitting the bottom bracket in or is that something that is generally a fit?
It will sadly prolly be a month or so before I have the spare time and money to put this all together so maybe ill look around some of the lbs to see if they have any said cranks at a good price. If not It sounds like the cheaper wheel/crank/everything package might be the way to go... Btw I appreciate all the help. Actually have learned alot here
