'pedal right down' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'apartment? ask a cat out?' is the wordplay.
'apartment?' becomes 'flat' ('flat' can be a synonym of 'apartment').
'out?' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'ask'+'a'+'cat'='askacat'
'askacat' with letters rearranged gives 'asatack'.
'flat'+'asatack'='FLATASATACK'

'in' is the link.
