Greetings Riv Chicas who read more than post! If you're like me,
you have been in situations where you didn't have quite the right
tool and/or didn't have quite the 'nough strength. I myself have
uttered choice words whilst attempting to remove/install pedals. 1)
A normal open-ended wrench is often too thick to fit in there, and
2) if it does fit, it's too short for my small 53 year-old women's
hands to loosen them when they're tight and I'm trying to remember
that the left side is reverse threaded.
My well-used mnemonic:
To REmove pedals, turn to the REar of the bike. *
(*Assuming the bike is upright, and the wrench handle is above the
pedal.)
and, yes, a real pedal wrench is invaluable!
