I've been biking for a number of years, primarily single track XC or gravel riding. I do adventure racing, which is incredibly tough on the bikes, but am hoping to improve my bike life.

What are some of the important bike maintenance things that you all do?

Add for bikes with suspension...

Regularly: Gently wipe dirt off the stanchions, main seals, and levers.

Longer interval: Disassemble fork and/or shock to clean seals and rebuild with fresh grease and oil.
