Why would you buy a specific wrench? If you don't have that specific size, go to Canadian Tire and buy one for $4. A wrench is a wrench, man. Save your money, and buy drugs...

wrong. You need a specific wrench for pedals. A normal wrench is to big to fit around the nut. And yes, that wrench will work.

i just use a regular wrench for pedals, granted it is a really thin wrench, if you can find a normal wrench that's like under a centimeter thick it should work fine

don't cheap out on a pedal wrench. i suggest getting the longest handle possible so you have leverage when working with a seized or tight pedal. you will thank yourself for paying a few extra dollars and getting a longer one.

Thanks guys. Yeah the one i ordered is 11 inches so that should be enough for leverage. And the reason im buying a dedicated one is because i coouldnt find a wrench that was thin enough. I ordered already so  thanks alot.
