i second that crank recommendation.
one piece crankarm/cahinring combinations like that (usually pressfit together) aren't designed to take the forces associated with fix-gear backpressure, skids and general brakeless riding.
They've been known to spontaneously explode apart at the crank/ring interface.
get yourself a new set of cranks before you die.
