I think I can do it with the help from a friend but I am not sure what bottom bracket is in there. I looked on the bike's website and on the cranks and don't know exactly what i am looking for.

This is an example of what you're looking for: https://www.ebay.com/itm/FSA-Adventu...cAAOSwEtJcq9G0

But there are others on eBay with different length crank arms, product levels, different BBs that will work, and different price ranges.

What length crank arm do you want and what is your budget?
