Installed new (to me) pedals, Time Atac MX, then absentmindedly dropped in my cadence & speed sensor magnet. These pedals have no wrenching surface and only a hex in the spindle… how do I remove this magnet to get at the pedal spindle?
Use another magnet? If that doesn’t work, maybe glue something to the backside with 15min epoxy
Nice clean fit on that magnet!

Get something pointy and dig it out of there.
Remove the crank and whack it on a piece of wood.
Drill the magnet.

Hot glue stick
drill/tap a hole and use a screw

if the magnet is not too strong, you can try using some tape

Super glue a small (not too small) wooden dowel or similar to it and pull it off. Clean off the super glue with acetone. It’s a magnet, you don’t want to accidentally destroy it, but if you do you can _easily_ buy a replacement.
