Pretty much this.
But even more obviously, check tire pressure (use a tire pressure calculator), replenish sealant every few months (if using tubeless tires), and visually inspect tires.
Monitor chain wear once in a while using a chain checker gauge. (The Park Tool CC-4 and Pedro's Chain Checker Plus Ⅱ are examples of pretty good ones.) Replace the chain before it exceeds the recommended wear limit so that it won't cause your cassette to wear out prematurely.
