Tips

Before mounting, verify that your crank arms have a 9/16" thread (most modern bikes do). The pedals are marked L and R, so match them to the correct side—tighten in the direction of rotation to keep them secure. Apply a thin layer of grease to the threads when installing to prevent seizing and make future removal easier. Check the reflectors periodically and replace them if cracked or missing.
