To expand on the above post - You can use the cranks you have, just need to get a chainring and bashguard. BCD refers to the diameter of the mounting bolts for the chainrings, needed to find a compatible ring How to measure Bolt Circle Diameter (BCD). Once you have the BCD just search for a chainring with that BCD and the tooth count you need, plus a trouser/bashguard.
