Why do the manufactorer put so much wax on new chains? Is it so they will last 100 years in the original packaging? Do they just dip the whole chain in a vat of wax like a bucket of lard?
Got my new chain today. Wow, that's a lot of wax on there. I was told by a few friends if you don't clean most of the wax off before installing it, it'll just fling off all over your bike and you'll spend time cleaning wax off swingarm, rim, etc.
So that's what I've been doing today, it's a pain, no fun factor at all.
