I've made a shopping list on wiggle for a new chain, cassette and
chainset to replace my old rusty ones. The chain is the main problem
(rusty) but none are in great conditions so I thought I'd replace the lot.
I was wondering if anyone could give me advice as to anything I've
overlooked, compatibility for example (it's for a 7 speed Raleigh MTB
from ~1998). Also is this an over-ambitious project, seeing as I've
never done much bike repair before? Still, not the end of the world if I
have problems as I can always return incorrect stuff!

Shimano HG30 Cassette - http://tinyurl.com/m5frf
Shimano T303 Chainset - http://tinyurl.com/ru4z5
Other stuff:
LifeLine Bicycle Tool Set (to do all this stuff!!) -

Transfil Gear Cable Inner (seems logical to change these now) -
http://tinyurl.com/rggk5
Spare Chain Pins (so I can remove the chain for cleaning?) -

Grease (for greasing appropriate stuff) - http://tinyurl.com/m74ro
Sorry for the long post, thanks for reading!
