The right pedal is a normal thread (anti-clockwise to undo), the left
pedal is a left-hand thread (clockwise to undo). Or, another way to
look at it is to turn both pedals backwards (relative to the uni
direction) to undo, forwards to tighten.
Best to lower the tyre pressure a bit to make sure it doesn't burst in
the hold, but I've never heard of it happening except on very high
pressure road tyres.
