INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS INCLUDING INFORMATION ON THE
MANUFACTURER’S WEBSITE. INSPECT YOUR BICYCLE BEFORE EVERY RIDE.
ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET!.
WARNING: A loose, cracked, worn out, or crashed pedal can come off
of your bicycle crank leading to a loss of control that could cause serious injury.
Pedals that are damaged or worn out should not be used. Remove immediately
and inspect for damage. If you are unsure if your pedal is unsafe to ride, consult
your local bicycle dealer.

TOOLS AND SUPPLIES
3mm and 6mm Allen wrenches
Grease
NOTE: Never use a cone wrench to remove or install a pedal.
NOTE: Pedal threads are different from left side and right side. The right-side
pedal has a right-hand thread (removes counterclockwise, installs clockwise).
The left-side pedal has a left-hand thread (removes clockwise, installs
counterclockwise). Additionally, the thread will appear to slope up toward
its tightening direction. Left-hand threads slope up to the left, while right-hand
threads slope up to the right.
INSTALLING PEDALS
1. Begin by identifying the right and left pedals. Look for “L” and “R” marking
on the pedal body. It is only stamped on one side of the pedal.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install a right-side pedal into the left-side
crank or vise versa. Doing so could permanently damage your crank AND
pedal. Left-threaded pedals (threads sloping upward to the left) go to left
crank. Right-threaded pedals (threads sloping upward to the right) go to
right crank. See image at top if in doubt.
2. Heavily grease threads of both pedals.
3. Thread the right-side pedal into right crank by hand, CLOCKWISE.
4. To tighten fully, use the 6mm Allen wrench from the back of the pedal spindle.
Torque to 18Nm.
5. Repeat these steps for the left-side pedal, making sure to tighten by turning
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE.
NOTE: Periodically check both pedals for tightness and retighten according
to these instructions if necessary.
WARNING: Immediately discontinue using the pedals if excessive play
develops, the pedal body or spindle shows signs of cracking, or the pedal body
seems too tight or too loose on the spindle. Take your bicycle or pedals
to a professional bicycle mechanic for evaluation, service, or replacement.
