I couldn't say without seeing the bike. most likely just the usual spanners, hex keys, possibly a socket set. go weigh it up. the chain is a piece of piss if its a sprung split link. a pair if pliers to put the clip on.
I'll assume the sprockets only fit one way,so they will already be lined up with I put them on?,Gonna start disaasmbling now.
just make sure they aren't offset. usually easy enough to just see if the details are stamped on one face (outer) take a pic of them before you take them off.
check the front sprocket first. will having the chain on help when undoing it? loosen mounting bolt(s). remove drive chain (loosen adjusters first). remove front sprocket remove rear wheel (should be an axle and a nut, dunno what the rear brake is like on yours?) four bolts undone and sprocket is off. take your time.......
I can't get into the front sprocket yet,missing a small socket extender,mine are to big.... and it's a drum brake on the rear wheel,right hand side.
Like Lee says, take pictures. See my "We three springs" thread, how I took a picture after each stage. Very useful when refitting. You may need to take the gear lever/linkage off too.
Infact buy it and ill fit it for you for free or ill supervise you doing it at my place if you prefer..?
Yeah too far If there isnt any one closer or you fancy traveling over to wigan/liverpool then just take pics as you go and we will help you out.. Honest its piss easy..!
I've offered to i'm in Wigan to. I've got all the tools - you can do it and ill drink beer and watch. We all want to help dude and the fact that you are getting this many offers of help i hope is drumming home how important this is.
Epic Fucking plan no idea who's changing your chain n sprockets but 3 of us are going to hang around and drink beer. Love it
If you all wanna come up and give me a hand I've got tea,but this bike won't be moving. I understand fully how important this is,I've moved evreything RL I.e college etc,to fix this.
Maybe this is why you slammed into the back of the car Nathan ? The chain was spinning on the sprocket ! Have you sorted that front end out now ? Forks ok With the dosh your spending on this bike, you could have a couple of fire blades in the shed ! BUT .... FairPlay to you cos this is the best way to learn about bikes, a cheapish run around that you can throw down the road, pick it up and ride it again , it also gets you into the bike maintenance side, where you can play around with things and learn at the same time , then when you do get a top bike, you respect it more and have a base knowledge of riding and maintenance....lite her up mate !
