Using this bike is easy. Just hop on, adjust the seat to your comfort, and start pedaling. When you're racing, shift gears smoothly using the Shimano Dura Ace Di2 derailleurs to keep your speed up. The hydraulic disc brakes are great for quick stops, so use them when you need to slow down or stop safely. As for maintenance, regularly clean the bike after rides, especially if you've been in wet or dirty conditions. Check the tire pressure of the Continental Grand Prix 5000S TR tires before each ride and keep them properly inflated. Lubricate the chain occasionally to ensure smooth gear - shifting. Also, have a professional check the bike's components like the carbon frame and wheelset every few months to make sure everything is in good working order.
