have to say, removing pedals is one of my least fav things to do.

1/4" Dewalt 20V Impact - I also use to install, but stop as soon as it is barely snug. I use it for lots of bike maintenance, just have to be careful.

Or, as another member here (Hi John) enlightened me a couple of yrs ago, loosening is turning the wrench toward the rear of the bike; tightening is toward the front. Easy enough even an idiot like me can remember it...

Now here's a tip. Next time, clean and grease the threads and don't torque the pedal so much.

Hmmmm. Towards the bike when the wrench is above or below the pedal?

As for the OP, when I have a tight pedal without wrench flats, I use my 1/2 inch breaker bar with a 8mm driver, remove the front wheel and place the fork on a fork mount bracket, then carefully setup the cranks with the pedal I'm removing almost on the ground, place the breaker bar/ 8mm driver on the pedal and step on the breaker bar.
