4.) Attach Pedals
Important! Make sure you check pedals are on the correct side and you know the
correct way to turn before screwing in. The left pedal needs to be screwed in an anti-
clockwise direction. Not doing so may cause the screw thread to get damaged.
It is important to know the steps to properly attach pedals to your bike. The pedals
have opposite threads to each other, making it only possible for them to go in one side
of the bike. We will show you how to identify this, as well as how to easily fit the
pedals. Please read through carefully as it’s not as straightforward as it first appears.
4a.) The pedals should have an R and an L stamped in the axles indicating which side
the pedals attach to (right and left sides observed as you are sitting on the bike).
4b.) Attaching the right pedal: The pedal body and pedal axle rotate freely from each
other, so you will need to screw the pedal in by the axle.
It is very important to start by screwing the!Right!pedal BY HAND into the crank arm in
a!Clockwise!direction, or towards the front of the bike. It should go in easily. When it
gets to the end, use the spanner or Allen key to tighten it fully. Use only a small
amount of force to tighten.
