Special tools Ive need to buy for mountain bike stripping/servicing are minimal.
A normal selection of tools will do most jobs, I have a comprehensive tool set supplied by Henry's Grotto.
I needed a bottom bracket extractor a bit like a toothed socket with a nut on the back, and a cassette extractor which looks similar, also you will need a chain link splitter.
You tend to have an Allen key in your hand most of the time.

Reason: to add chain link splitter.
