Using the Teal Pedal Raven 2 is easy. First, adjust the seat to a comfortable height. When you're out on the road or trail, use the 3x7 Speed Shimano Tourney gearing to handle different terrains. For uphill climbs, shift to a lower gear; for flat roads or downhill, a higher gear is better. When riding, keep an eye out for curbs, potholes, and rough tracks. The front suspension fork will help smooth out the bumps, but it's still important to be cautious. As for maintenance, regularly check the tire pressure. The 700c wheels with 32c hybrid tires need to be at the right pressure for optimal performance. Also, clean the bike after each ride, especially if you've been on a muddy trail. Wipe down the frame, gears, and chain to prevent dirt build - up. Every few months, take the bike to a professional for a more thorough check - up and servicing. This will keep your Teal Pedal Raven 2 in great shape for many adventures to come.
