Can someone recommend a good resource for getting a neglected bike back into riding condition? What tools I need, what sort of parts I should check if they need replacement, so on? (kbin.social)

Just want to add some things. You should also visit https://www.sheldonbrown.com for more detailed informations. Good tools are helpful, its better to spend more money for quality. A repair stand, even diy, makes things easier.
