I have no doubt that this is the official way to service Keo pedals (and that Al is an excellent mechanic), but I suspect this is overkill. I've ridden over 20,000kms on my Keo pedals and I just service them by opening, cleaning, re-greasing, and closing them. The thread directions are handed for a reason - they don't naturally try to unscrew themselves on the bike. I personally would skip the Loctite step (and I'd likely use a bit more grease too).

4-5nm? I can't find anything to confirm this, but most shops and forums online suggest a little over hand tight or you could potentially break the plastic on the collar or even pedal casing

I am about to service an old Kep Sprint pedals but the locking nut is slightly different - it has 8 square protrusions instead of the more recent star shaped style. Would the 19mm wrench method still work, or do I risk damaging the nut?

I still don't understand how I tighten the right pedal nut with the torque wrench to 4 N/m?! It's just that the thread has the same direction as the pedal on the left side and the torque wrench can only measure newtons in the normal and not inverted tightening direction. I would have liked to have seen him doing the video with the right pedal, to see how he tightened the nut to 5 N/m.
@zurcher13682 жыл бұрын
You need a bidirectional (also known as dual direction) torque wrench, which means that they register the torque on both clockwise and counter-clockwise direction. There are many on the market, including from Park Tool.

It went together easily in less than an hour. kzbin.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.

No special tool needed - a multi-point 19mm socket fits perfectly. Although the nut is plastic it's not that soft. It just needs some care to avoid cross-threading and don't over-tighten it.
