If loosening your tension screws on your pedals just isn’t helping. Perhaps trying some lube would help. I used Boeshield on my pedals and they felt great right after.

With a title like that, I bet you’re wondering what I’m talking about. Well, here it is…”how long does it take for you to get OUT OF SHAPE?” I’m not talking about getting IN SHAPE, but OUT. I ask this question because I’ve had a nagging cough for about a month. I thought that if…
