Tools

[McFsC]

Basically I'm wanting tools for everything, removing hubs, casettes, check for chain wear, BB removal. Just everything to maintain my bike.

Does anyone know of a 'set' you can buy with everything in that I will need? I'd much rather that as it will be easier to buy because I don't know exactly what tools I will need so trust a set will have everything.

I have one of these that's done the job so far: http://www.evanscycles.com/products/ice-toolz/esse...

Bit pricey at full price, but I managed to get mine for about £35 via a bit of googling and the Evans price match...

I have this and its served me well so far. The tools it doesn't contain I buy elsewhere if I don't get the LBS to do as I don't use them very often.

I have the Icetoolz, there's a few sets around that are basically the same kit but slightly different finish and box IMHO.

It's perfectly adequate and owes me nothing due to saving me a few trips to the LBS for a few odd jobs. Make sure all the stuff in whichever kit you get fits the bits on the bikes you want to work on.

I had a set of general tools before I got the kit. A proper bike workstand has made more difference to general day to day maintenance than a special bike tool kit.
