Just lubed my new Surly's chain. Ok, I'm bad, I should've done it last week when I got her... cuz we all know the "lube" that comes on a new chain is useless and isn't really lube.
Really? Where did you get that information. I was told the opposite by a bike shop mechanic, that it is an extremely high quality lube, and that you shouldn't remove it until the chain was dirty from use and required cleaning.
