Tyres are easily changed, depending on the planned route. For all weather road riding, you could go to 700x25 Open Pave at about 500g, or get muddy on 700x35 Conti CX-King at nearer 800g
Chainline on my Pompetamine doesn't need an MTB crank, just the usual Campag UltraTorque outer ring and the sprocket close to the flange on Hope Trials hub. Anything based on multi-speed cassette hubs will have plenty of space on the cassette rotor to accommodate any road or track crank.
