things to bear in mind - any crank puller will do, unless you have TA or Stronglight cranks. Be careful when inserting the crank puller - use grease to make sure it threads properly. Take a look at your bottom bracket. You will need a different tool dependent on the style of cups - shimano requires a special tool whereas older bbs can be gotten off with a hammer and screwdriver or any old lockring spanner.
Don't forget to CLEAN the threads, thouroughly, before REGREASING them and inserting the new BB. Then cover yourself in grease, and roll around on the floor. This helps you relax.
