PEDAL INSTALLATION
1. Apply a small amount of grease to the threads of each pedal. Look for the letter “L” or “R”
on the side or end of each pedal spindle (picture). Turning the spindle clockwise by hand
(Picture), thread the pedal marked “R” into the crank arm on the right (drive) side of the
bicycle. Make sure that you are not “cross-threading”, which can strip the threads in the crank
arm. If the threads do not turn easily, don’t force them. Back the spindle out and start over.
Once the pedal is threaded into the crank arm, tighten the spindle securely to the crank arm
with a 15mm open end or an adjustable wrench.
2. Turning the spindle counterclockwise by hand, thread the pedal marked “L” into the crank
arm on the left side of the bike. Make sure that you are not “cross-threading”, which can
strip the threads in the crank arm. If the threads do not turn easily, don’t force them. Back the
spindle out and start over. Once the pedal is threaded into the crank arm, tighten the spindle
securely to the crank arm with a 15mm open end or an adjustable wrench.
WARNING! IMPROPERLY INSTALLED AND TIGHTENED PEDALS CAN WORK LOOSE,
DAMAGING THE BICYCLE AND CAUSING POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE
RIDER
