an 8mm allen wrench (or 12mm? socket, depending)
a crank puller.there are a few different pullers depending on your design. make sure you
get the right one. check www.parktool.com for tool info.By the way, good tools last, and you'll find that you use them more than
you think. Spend the money on good stuff now. Don't bother with big kits,
just buy stuff as you need it.Jon Bond

Sir Isaac NewtonMake sure you buy quality though! I got cheap and bought a set of
Performance cone wrenches, and they are not worth the metal they were
stamped from! Just shows you get what you pay for. I bought a set of Park
cone wrenches after that, and they are awesome. -
