How to remove crank brothers pedals.

[Profpointy]

I must be stupid. I still cant get it off. I didnt know allen keys this big existed. I have a set and i need one thats about twice as big as the biggest.

well obviously (sorry, but had to be said) you do need an allen key the right size - and with a pretty long handle. I've got a superb set of Facom T-bar keys but they were very expensive ! A socket set allen key might also work - a free one from Ikea furniture won't do. And as others have said, one pedal unscrews the "wrong" way.

not sure I'd buy park tools for standard engineering items like allen keys or wire cutters - fair enough for specialist bike items

Shouldn't you be on your way to school Ed or is it another 'teacher training day'?

Park Tools cable cutters are very good. Well worth the spondoolies on this occasion.
