With 175mm crank arms on the bike, I have to wonder if the bike is really too big for you anyway. Usually don't see that long a crank until you get to the larger size road bikes. Or is this a mountain bike you put on the trainer?
I suppose if it's a used bike you bought then the previous owner may have put longer cranks on it. If you know that person, then ask if they still have the original cranks.
It's also entirely possible that you might find a used bike of the correct size for you with the size cranks you want for about the same as what new cranks will cost you. Depending on how good you are at finding deals and the market in your area.
