How do I install my pedals?

Installing pedals on a spin bike is a straightforward process. Here's a step-by-step guide to help:

1. Gather Necessary Tools: Typically, you'll need a pedal wrench.

2. Identify Right and Left Pedals: The pedals are marked with an "R" for right and an "L" for left. Make sure you're installing the correct pedal on each side.

3. Prepare the Bike: If there are old pedals on the bike, remove them by turning them counterclockwise. Remember, the left pedal (non-drive side) is reverse-threaded, so you'll need to turn it clockwise to remove it.

4. Install the Right Pedal (Drive Side): Start by threading the right pedal into the drive-side crank arm by turning it clockwise. Use your fingers to insert and then a wrench to tighten it securely. Be careful not to cross-thread the pedal, as this can damage the threads on both the pedal and the crank arm.

5. Install the Left Pedal (Non-Drive Side): The left pedal is reverse-threaded, so you'll need to turn it counterclockwise to install it into the non-drive side crank arm. Again, use your wrench to tighten it securely.

6. Check Tightness: Once both pedals are installed, give them a final check to ensure they're tightened securely. They should be snug but not overly tight.

7. Test Ride: Before riding, do a quick test by spinning the pedals with your hands to make sure they rotate smoothly and there's no wobbling.
