Hi guys, i know that this has been asked loads of times but on phone at present so cannot search that well.
How can i take of the previous owners pedals of the bike i have just purchased to do up?
They just won't budge clockwise or anti-clockwise, even trying to oil them.
What can i do?
40 mph in a 30 zone officer? nah, I've only been out for the last 5 minutes !!

    Place your pedal spanner & then place a bit of pipe over the end of pedal spanner to give extra leverage.
    Now push down towards rear of bike ( back wheel ).
    We shall let you know if soaking, vices & heat treatment is needed if the above proves to be not very fruitful :-)
