I’m planning on buying my first new bike, but I don’t know how to take proper care of it. For context I know how to change a tire but that’s about it. I’m mostly worried about the correct way to lubricate the chain, what to do to avoid rusting and other basic stuff that could help keep the bike in good conditions. Also I don’t know if there are any common issues I should look out for, I’ve owned bikes but they were always already old and damaged so I never paid much attention to their upkeeping. I would use it mainly to commute to work in the city so I figured a new bike, like the one in the pictures, on the cheap end would do the trick. Also I’ve never had a bike with disc brakes or those kind of levers for the gear shifter, so any tip on those is just as welcomed. Thank you all in advance!
The bike is a SCO Rebel, I’ve read some reviews on the brand rather than the bike model itself and I know it’s not the best quality but I think it could be worth the cheap price
