Because they are installed wrong. You can remove one crank using crank puller and install it in correct position, or take it back to shop.

  • And if the pedals were right at one time but are no longer then likely one of the crank arms is loose. Apr 23, 2016 at 18:54

    (But I note that this is a BSO that might be sold at Walmart or some such, and the folks who prep bikes at such stores are often incompetent. So getting a bike with the pedals installed wrong would not be incredibly unlikely.) Apr 23, 2016 at 18:56
