New Biker Blunder

I just finished setting up my new Priority Current. I had trouble adjusting the stem because I could not loosen the hex screw. Priority offered to reimburse me if I took the bike to a local shop. The nearest shop to me is a small Pedego dealer. I went there expecting to pay a bundle. Instead the owner adjusted my stem/handle bar and front brake for free. Awesome. As I was riding home I thought the bike was harder to pedal than expected. Since I had purchased a Fanttik pump I hooked that up. Surprisingly my front tire had 22 lbs psi and my back only 11. So check that pressure new riders! The Fanttik is pretty great so far. Not too heavy and it was able to inflate those tires in less than a minute.
 
Check out of the box and often after that. Bicycles require continuous maintenance.
Yeah I feel I am pretty naive about what will be required. Which is why I am glad to have a relatively low maintenance bike like the Current. No chain and a sealed hub.
