    For the pedals, remember that you must unscrew them by turning your wrench towards the BACK of the bike, whichever side you are on. To put the pedals on, you must turn the wrench towards the FRONT of the bike.

    This being said, I've often experienced fused pedals which I was unable to remove. When the bike shop finally did the job for me last time, we added a little o-ring (plus the usual grease) and it made a world of difference.

    I now put the pedals on and off by using an hex-key (instead of the wrench) on the inside of the crank. Much easier, too.

    ENJOY!!
    Thanks Grog, I needed that advice too. I forgot how to do it
