Question

im about to buy a bike which i have to assemble myself. however, i am willing to do it but i have none of the tools it will possibly need such as spanner, alan key. the only one i do have is s***w driver.

what do i do?

Answer 1

Go to Walmart and get some tools.

A set of metric wrenches you will use 8.10, and 15mm.

A set of metric allen wrenches, you will use the 4,5,6, and 8mm.

Of coarse it will depend on the bike what size you need.

A philips s***w driver and a pair of pliers.

Bicycle air pump.

Schwinn has a good bike assembly video out if I can find it.

I can't link directly to it but it is just below the picture of the bike.

just buy um. if the money is the problem , then raise a charity. i'm sure people will be willing to help. you can also borrow the tools from your friends and neighbors. just dont bother them too much. you can also sell some of your old stuff. oh and if you like my answer send a mail to me. my id is [e-mail] . bye...........  

Answer 3

if you're going to be doing your own assembly and maintenance, then I suggest getting a bicycling specific tool kit for about $120: http://www.rei.com/category/4500889, and a repair/maintenance manual: http://bmr.bicycling.com/uof/bicyclingma...
