Considering the fact my newest bike is already over a decade old and I prefer to restore bikes from the previous millennium this is going to be a distinctly personal list. I admit this list is more about restoring than repairing, but that's to be expected from a guy doing bike restorations. But I said up front this list would be very personal. At number 5 sits the crank puller. When I started to get serious about doing my own bike repairs, the first thing you want to do is to overhaul the drivetrain. That means you'll need a tool to remove the crank. The reason why I chose this above the Chain Tool CT-3.2 and Chain Whip SR-2.3, tools necessary to remove the chain and sprocket, is that I simply use the crank puller much more often. That’s because I also remove the crank to be able to clean it more thoroughly. At number 4 sits the tool I owned long before I actively started restoring bicycles and is the tool I've probably used the most by far. That's because you need them for your brakes, brake levers, shifters, derailleurs, seat post, and the list goes on. Basically every bolt on your bike needs to be operated with a hex tool. And not having to think about getting the right one but having them all in one tight package is a blessing. Especially for the price of 10 euros. The difference between having to clean your chain with or without a chain cleaner is tremendous. It's much easier, faster and better enabling you to do a quick 5-minute clean before riding. I own the BBB version but will consider the Park Tool CM-25 Professional Chain Scrubber since that one is made from aluminium. And the plastic body cracked and broke very quickly. Especially with restoration projects, you need to step up your game when it comes to cleaning. And turpentine or white spirit will give you the edge when it comes to removing decades old grease. Used on a piece of cloth, in a chain cleaner or the infamous salad bowl, it's my tried-and-true recipe of cleaning each and every bicycle part you can think of. For my number one pick I've chosen a tool which falls more into the "restoration" category than the "repair" category. But that can be said for this entire top three. More than any other tool I own, the Polishing Wheel breathes new live into a tired old bicycle parts. You don't use it to get a bike back into working condition but to restore its parts to their former glory, enabling you to achieve that "time-capsule" feel of old bikes. In all honesty, what projects you take on might differ markedly from my penchant for 80s and 90s bicycles and may require different tools. My suggestion would be to expand your toolset with each new project just like I did. Then you're sure you'll buy what you need I've also written about blog post with more information.
