Using your Marin San Anselmo DS2 Hybrid Bike is easy. Just hop on, adjust the seat to your comfort, and start pedaling. Whether you're on a paved path or dirt track, this bike can handle it. Before each ride, make sure to check the tire pressure; it should be around the recommended level for 700C wheels. Also, test the hydraulic disc brakes to ensure they're working properly. When riding on dirt, try to keep a steady speed to avoid skidding. For maintenance, clean the bike regularly, especially after riding in muddy conditions. Use a mild soap and water to clean the frame, wheels, and components. Lubricate the chain every few rides to keep it running smoothly. If you notice any issues with the Shimano drivetrain or other parts, it's best to take it to a professional bike mechanic for a check - up.
