Quick Crankset Questions..
ok last night i got the BB installed, front and rear brake calipers installed (not the cable part - still waiting on handlebar to arrive).
so tonight i'll be installing my ultegra crank. i have noticed that these shimano parts come with this white stuff already placed on the threads of some parts. should i be adding grease to it before installing or can i just install it as is? i'm using Mobile 1 Pure Synthetic Grease.
