Anyone have any thoughts on the Sunrace or Suntour crank options?

Another possibility I'm considering is ordering replacement chain rings as a set (44/32/22) and installing all new rings. More $ than just a granny, but probably less than a complete crankset & bottom bracket & shop labor.

Dug up the specs on my derailleur, and I'm good there. Minimum big ring 44t, 22t total capacity, 12t gap.
