Hi All,
I,m glad to say that I am now the proud owner of a Cannondale Synapse 105 Flat bar which I won on Ebay. Picked it up last weekend and ordered the Shimano M647 DX pedals along with the multi use MTB shoes.
All arrived this morning along with a brand new set of extra long allen keys incl. 8mm.
I,ve taken off one of the pedals, its a M540. The others not coming off, tried WD40, hollow pipe, spanners.
These type only come off with an allen key.
Tried hot water, no luck.
Then I noticed that there were 3 small cracks in the allen hole, the key cant get a secure grip and keeps slipping out as with the cracks the allen hole seems a little larger.
Also I dont think it will budge like this.
Any options?
Does anyone recommend a LBS to the ealing/hoounslow area that they can recommend for this type of job?
Also any ideas on how much a crankset would set me back if I cant get the pedal off?
Thanks
Kash
