Using this Surly Disc Trucker Frameset is easy. First, make sure all the components are properly installed, like the wheels, brakes, and gears. When loading your bike for a trip, use the fork blade three - pack mounts and braze - ons to attach your bags and other essentials. For a comfortable ride, adjust your seat and handlebars to your preferred position. As for maintenance, regularly check the 12mm thru - axles and disc brakes for any signs of wear or looseness. Keep the 100% Chromoly steel frame and fork clean by wiping it down after each ride, especially if you've been in dirty or wet conditions. Lubricate the moving parts like the chain and gears every few rides. When storing the bike, keep it in a dry place to prevent rust on the steel frame. Also, be careful when riding on rough roads as the spare spoke holders are there to help in case a spoke breaks, but it's still better to avoid extreme impacts.
