Full suspension bike question?

i bought my first full suspension bike w/ disc brakes, i didnt get the manual to see about the maintenence of it, how do i maintain the springs %26amp; change the breaks? also they have quick release how do i take off the rims? i know how to do it on my hard tail but i never dealt with disc brakes beforeFull suspension bike question?
Go back to the place of purchase and get the manual. If they don't have it, return the bike. It is Federal law that manuals be supplied with new bikes.



Discs are precision things and you really shouldn't play with them on your own unless you know what you are doing after someone else shows you.



Quick releases are simple things, and their operation should have been explained to you at the shop where you purchased it. I STRONGLY recommend that you don't attempt to remove the wheels until you are shown how to use them since it is easy to use them incorrectly and place yourself in danger.



If you got the bike from a discount store, well, why do you think they call them discount stores? No service and no professional help along with a mediocre product... but hey, you saved money, right?
