<< < (3/4) > >>

i find the easiest way to remember is that the spanner always goes towards the back wheel...    8)

oh and i use a pair of forks as leverage i find i take out the missus's ornaments with the scaffold poles...  also have you seen the size of scaffolders you dont piss those guys off!  :knuppel2:

Rombloke:
buy a proper pedal spanner for starters....even decent quality spanners will flare at the sign of a 15 stone man squeezing fu'ck out of it.

pedal spanners are longer than your average combination spanner too...thus more leverage.....if this still doesnt work, then get a scaffold tube over the spanner, about four foot long is plenty, and the pedal will not resist....ask flaz.....grrrrr....dave strong like bull

i must have broke about 10 15mm spanners trying to get stubborn pedals off in the past one defeated me and never budged on set redline prolines too,soak in wd40 first is good move though it seems to loosen the seal on the threads a bit

snav69:
Turn your bike upsidedown and stand at the chainring side , undo your pedal towards the front wheel (anticlockwise) and lean over and do the same to the other pedal turning it towards the front wheel  ;) Oh and use a good Stilson wrench for stubbon fookers  :knuppel2:  :LolLolLolLol:
