It would be silly to take off the crank arms unecessarily. This is a very small and incredibly common unicycle issue (not an LX problem at all). The dust caps are almost always the first part to be lost or crack. They are a $1 part if you are very worried about it.

The only time the loss of a dust cap caused a serious problem for us was when a unicyclist was doing grinds so much, that when he stripped the cranks it was nearly impossible to use a crank puller because he damaged the internal crank threads so badly.

Just keep it clean and greased.
