The left pedal on a bike is reverse thread.
The purpose of a bike pedal reverse thread is to prevent the pedal from unscrewing while riding. This means that the left pedal has a reverse thread, so it tightens in the opposite direction compared to the right pedal. This affects the installation and removal of pedals on a bicycle because it requires turning the left pedal counterclockwise to tighten it, and turning the right pedal clockwise to tighten it. This can be confusing for some people, but it ensures that the pedals stay securely attached to the bike during use.
