    hi! im begging for advice here, im trying to change my cranks but i cant
    get the pedal off the old crank, having serious trouble - itd be ok if
    i cud ride one footed, but i cant! anyone got any suggestions??

    Are you twisting it in the right direction? Left-hand pedals are
    reverse-threaded, so you twist clockwise to loosen them. What I do is
    straddle the unicycle wheel and sit on it (with the seat dropped
    behind); from that vantage point you can just remove both pedals in
    "the same" way (pushing the pedal wrench away from you).

    If you've already removed the crank, it will be hard to remove the
    pedal because you have no leverage. You might want to stick the crank
    back on the unicycle so you can loosen the pedal. Or else stick the
    crank in a vise.
