yeh thats how i remember these things like pedals, BB etc, the front to do up the back to undo. so if hes attacking this from the back of the crank with an allen key, it should be going clockwise, right?
its just he said up there - "I'm not turning the pedal clockwise."
please correct me if i have got the wrong end of the stick.
Yeah, obviously it depends on what side of the 'clock face' you are working on :) The easy way to remember is just turn the wrench or whatever towards the back of the bike to remove, towards the front to tighten. Bingo :)
