Any hints to ease the process? Heat?
You can take the crank arm off, put it on a solid floor, concrete works best, rag underneath, put the pedal wrench on then apply your full weigh to the wrench in the correct direction. Jump on it if necessary :)
If its the drive side you will need bricks etc to keep the spider off the floor.
A friend wants me to remove his very frozen right side pedal.
He neglected to grease or oil the threads before installing it a few years ago.
I've only worked on it a little so far with WD40 and a long wrench and mallet, need to locate appropriate cheater bar.
