Hi Guys,
I'm struggling to remove my 540 pedals off my old bike to attach to my new.
Do I undo the 6mm Allen key bolt or the 15 Spanner nut? - I have searched but was getting mixed answers
I understand which way to go (the pedal tells me ) but for the life of me i cannont get them off. I'm half tempted to just get new pedals and sell my old bike with pedals.
thanks in advance

spray wd-40 in there and get a decent allen key.
there's another thread discussing the same issue just today.

If he's using the old shoes and cleats, why break up a winning combination?RonK wrote:: shock You are going to put old pedals on a new bike? : rollSnagdog wrote:Hi Guys, I'm struggling to remove my 540 pedals off my old bike to attach to my new.
...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
