Youll be fine. Dan from on your bike had huge cranks (I think 180's) on his IRO.
I run 165's but I have a ridiculously low 245mm bb height (with tyres) This is fine for me as I have a small cadence feels perfect.
Youll probably find that your BB height on your bike is something like 285mm-300mm as its a proper track frame. Plus your BB spindle will probably be a narrow one (mine is 110) meaning you could get away with any cranks you want being 4cm-6cm higher than mine for example.
