Garmin Vector 3/Rally pedal body replacement and maintenance

After a certain time of use, the pedals need to be in maintenance. Sometime, body replacement is needed due to play developed in the bearings. This is the first time I tried with the replacement and wish to share some experience. It is always important to refer to the manufacturer manual The Vector 3 still has the plastic thread in the pedal body. Many users cross-threaded this. Hence, it is the best practice that one should use hand to screw the end cap in. The rally uses the metal inserted thread (It was the only improvement for the body) You will need to have a big pedal wrench, torque wrench (10N.m). Using the thin pedal wrench can damage the spindle. I don't use any special grease. It is just bearing grease Many users when comparing with Favero Assioma state that the spindle does not rotate smoothly. I can tell you that Garmin Vector has very good dust/water seal. In fact they have 2 seals and having the replacement battery in the rotation does create some drag. However, the system is much better in design compared to Assioma. Having the Pos outside is the dead sentence. Garmin Pedal Power meter. Garmin Vector 3/ Rally
