PEDAL INSPECTION: Pedals should be inspected every month, taking note of the following
areas:
– Check that the pedals are tightened securely against the crank arm. If pedals are
allowed to become loose, they will not only be dangerous to the rider but will also cause
irreparable damage to the mating threads of the cranks.
– Check that pedal bearings are properly functioning. Move the pedals up and down, and
right to left, and also rotate them by hand. If you detect any looseness or roughness in
the pedal bearings then lubrication or replacement is required. Check your pedals to see
if adjustment is possible to correct the looseness.
– Ensure that the front and rear pedal reflectors on each pedal are clean, not cracked, and
securely fitted.
WARNING! Never ride with loose pedals. Improperly installed or tightened pedals
can work loose, damaging the bicycle and causing possible serious injurty or
death to the rider.
Always wear solid, well-constructed shoes while riding.
