    Try aebike.com. I had luck finding 165 cranks with them.

    >Bulletproof Silver 110 BCD Cranks only $36.95

    Bulletproof BMX cranks can be used as a single or double chainring setup.

    These use the highly versatile 110 mm bolt circle, and fit standard tapered-square bottom bracket axles.

    Chainline w/107 mm bottom bracket:

    * 43.4 mm as double (middle of spider)
    * 47.1 mm outer ring
    * 39.7 mm inner ring
    * 158 mm tread ("Q factor")

    530 grams/pair (165 mm)

    Arms only, no bolts nor chainrings included.

    Lengths available (not all in stock): 140 mm, 150 mm, 155 mm, 160 mm, 165 mm, 170 mm <

    If your legs are the same length I would really hesitate to have different length crank arms. It seems to my non-expert self that that would just create imbalances that would exacerbate the effects of your knee issue. Have you asked a PT about it?

    Your lbs owner should easily be able to order 165 cranks. I had no problem getting them!

    Yeah - most of my bikes have 165's (one DuraAce, two 105's), my kiddie cross bike has 157's (or something like that) I think.
