I have built up a number of bikes from bare frames (including the UO-8) and and lots of wheels from bare hubs. I have stripped a number of bikes down to the bare frame for restoration (with or without repainting) and have successfully reassembled them with either stock or updated/upgraded components (including the two Capos, the PKN-10E, and the Bianchi.) I rarely encounter a problem for which I don't have the right tools, such as chasing the threads in a bottom bracket or removing an extremely stuck fixed BB cup. I have a good bench vise, a Park shop stand, and a VAR truing stand, plus a goodly assortment of BB spanners, a chain whip, a cog vise, and a couple of wire "third-hand" brake caliper clamps.
