You'll need some US allen (hex) wrenches and a "star" bit set. And, about 3 or 4 sizes socket or open end wrenchs. Probably, 9/16, 1/2, 5/8 and 1/4". Oh yeah....a philips screw driver too. HD makes a small bike toolset, you could see what they have in theirs and go out and buy the same items for probably half the price.

As far as the allen and star bit set....Cobolt makes a nice set with a socket type wrench and the hex and star bits for about $50. You can get em at Home Depot.

You might want a torque wrench too....Get a good one! Probably from Sears or something.

Hope this helps
