One-piece cranks can be fine for a beater bike, and with a tank like this that's kind of what I'd expect. They are easy to service (you just need a crescent wrench), and work well. The only real downside is that it can be tough to find good pedals for them. But, if you're willing to just go with BMX platforms, you're all set.
