New chain: remove the factory goop ?
I'm going to get a new chain (SRAM 9 speeds).
1) Should I remove the goop that's part of the factory process and then apply the usual bike chain oil ?
2) Should I leave the goop and add oil ?
3) Should I leave the goop, apply no oil, and wait after a couple of rides to clean it and lubricate ?
4) None of the above (is it possible ? ;-)
Cheers.
