Using the Marin Nicasio+ Gravel Bike is a breeze. Just hop on and start pedaling! It's great for all sorts of rides, whether you're commuting to work or going on a long - distance tour. When riding, make sure to adjust the seat to a comfortable height. Also, be aware of your surroundings, especially on gravel paths and mixed surfaces. For maintenance, regularly check the tire pressure. The 650B wheels with WTB Horizon 47mm tires need to be at the right pressure for good grip and stability. Clean the bike after every long ride, especially if you've been on muddy or dusty terrains. And don't forget to lubricate the chain to keep the microSHIFT SWORD 1x9 drivetrain shifting smoothly. If you're planning to use the rack and fender mounts, ensure that the items you attach are securely fastened.
