- Brakes: Inspect brake pads and rotors for wear. Ensure hydraulic brake fluid levels are adequate.
- Chain: Keep the chain clean and lubricated for smooth operation and to prevent rust.
- Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and fasteners for tightness.
- Cleaning: Clean the bike with a damp cloth. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.
