I'd rather use the 15mm then an allen.

You should probably invest in a pedal wrench, for now and the future.

Regular 15mm wrench is almost always too thick to fit in the space on the spindle. Pedal wrench is usually quite a bit thinner than a regular one.

I second the
"so happy I got a pedal wrench"
relatively cheap and makes it alot easier.

But if you have the allen key in the end, and you have a 1/4" drive and the right allen socket size for the pedals that is great as well.

A regular old wrench has worked on all my bikes so far.
