[QUOTE="James, post: 123110, member: 2"] Make sure you get metric! If you have zero tools I'd start with this (others can add to it as I'll miss some things): [LIST] [*]Basic socket set that covers 6-22mm [*]Sockets for steering stem and rear axle [*]Hex (Allen) sockets (I prefer the sockets over the wrenches) [*]4" and 10" socket extenders [*]Wrench set (ratcheting if money isn't a problem) [*]Needle nose pliers [*]Regular pliers [*]Channel Locks [*]Screw driver set [*]Small wire cutters [*]Regular and Needle Nose Vise Grips [*]Hammer [*]Knife [*]Tape measure (to set your sag) [*]Punch set [*]Feeler gauges [*]Digital calipers [*]Foot and Inch pound torque wrenches [*]Measuring cup, the glass ones for the kitchen work great (use it to measure oil etc) [/LIST] That should allow you to do pretty much anything on your bike.
