Squeaking LT Pedal

Seems like quite a few folk have this same issue.(Including me)

First, find yourself some dry lube. I used dry bike chain lube as it wont attract as much dirt and shouldn't eat any plastic or rubber washers.

(don't use WD 40 and better if you don't use a spray lube as it's difficult to control what gets lubed))

Loosen off the tension bolt for the Exp pedal JUST A LITTLE!! (adjusted by the hex bolt on the side of the LT)

If you go too far then the bolt internal to the LT will drop off the end of the spindle and you will end up having to open the whole thing up.

Using a cocktail stick or similar run the lube down the stick and onto the edge of the pedal just above where it rocks or as close to the spindle as you can get. 

Do one side at a time and work the lube in by rocking the pedal back and forwards (up and down?) a few times.

Usually this should do the job. If not then you will have to unbolt the sides and then screw off the bottom plate of the LT to gain access to the parts of the pedal that are causing the squeak.
