What tools do you need for your bike maintenance?
Im a complete noob when it comes to doing maintenance on a bike, but want to get started. What are the tools you would think are required to do a complete maintenance on your bike? I'm guessing a good metric wrench set, a bike stand, and some typical tools like screwdrivers. Is there anything specific that you think that people would need to get to do work on the bike?

A torque wrench and the OEM tool kit in addition to what you already listed.

Hex Bit Sockets are a must.
Hex T-Handles are nice but not a must have. 1/2 Breaker Bar Make sure you get 6 point sockets, less likely to round a bolt head.
