Old Suntour cranks

Hey new to the forum, have an old mongoose crossway that has a Suntour XR crank. The gear set is worn and I want to replace but would like a 165mm crank? I've been told it will help with hip pain. Any ideas? Also I haven't pulled it yet to see what the BB is but thinking of upgrading it. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

There's a good chance that the new crankset will want a different BB anyway, so just include it too in your budget. Andy
