PRO Pedal Wrench 8mm Allen Key

The Bicycle Depot Technical Top Tip: Sometimes a pedal just won't undo. In this case, STOP, LOOK, THINK! Get the bike in a position where you can 'control' the tool and where you can get the best 'mechanical' advantage or leverage. Consider up-ending the bike and removing the rear wheel to give good access. Check your pushing in the correct direction (left pedal has left ahnd thread...) STOP before you do any damage to the pedal - this will only make it harder for a professional mechanic to get the pedal loose. Most professional mechanics will have a special tool from EVT (Efficient Velo Tools USA) to assist in the process.
