I have ordered a bike to be disassembled and shipped to me and I was wondering what specific tools I might need to have in order to put the bike together once it gets here. I figure I might need at least a multi tool and a pedal wrench. If there's already a thread on this I appologize. I couldn't find it with the search feature.

Typically: 5 & 6 mm allen wrenches, pedal wrench, and a spoke wrench to at least get the wheels somewhat true after shipping. Screwdrivers to adjust the brakes. That pretty much covers it, depending on the bike.
