    How can I grease these old Raleigh pedals?

    I've got an old Raleigh Shopper, on which one of the pedals sounds quite dry when I spin it. I'd like to grease it but I don't see any outside cap on the spindle which I could prise off or unscrew to get access to a nut for further dismantling. Can anyone please suggest a method?
