Using the Ritchey Ascent Frameset is easy. First, choose the wheels and handlebars according to your riding style. For off - road trails, go with 27.5' wheels and a mountain bike bar. If you're planning long - distance rides on rough roads, 29' wheels and drop bars are a great choice. When installing racks and fenders, make sure they are securely attached to the provided mounts. As for maintenance, keep the frame clean. After a muddy ride, wash it with mild soap and water. Check the brake components regularly for wear and tear. Also, lubricate the moving parts like the seat collar and axles from time to time to ensure smooth operation. When not in use, store the frameset in a dry place to prevent rusting.
