Hello,

On a Kid's bike that I am trying to fix up, I know the left pedal
has a "reverse" thread where it attaches to the crank.

Are there any on the front or rear threads that hold the wheels to the
fork also, or are these the normal directional screw-threads ?

Thanks,
Bob

Unless someone has been doing some odd engineering when I wasn't looking,
no, only left pedals loosen clockwise (and may have cones that adjust in
reverse, too), everything else adjusts in the classic "righty-tighty, lefty-
loosey" fashion.
