Is "spanner" the english word for an adjustable wrench? Just wondering.

I keep my spanners in the boot of my car.
For those across the pond, that translates to "I keep my wrenches in the trunk of my automobile."

you will most likely need:
4,5,6,8 mm allen keys 10 and 14mm spanners pump
Unis from UDC come with comprehensive insturctions. About the only thing you can get really wrong is putting the wheel backwards in the frame. Make sure that the pedals L/R marking is the same as on the crank you fix it to, and that your right foot ends up on the right pedal.

UDC also threw in a couple tools with my last order (Nimbus ISIS), so everything I needed was right in the box. Perhaps they do this when you buy a uni from them now?

You'll get hurt if you don't land it.
