ok, but how many miles has it covered?
Chains do come with some kind of lube from the factory, and some argue that you simply need to top it up when needed.
Also, from the picture it would difficult to tell if you only ever used dry lube.
If you never oiled it and it is performing fine... I suppose it's okish? But dry lube wouldn't hurt if the chain needs it.0 -
It took longer to type the post than it would have done to put a drop of oil on the chain.0

It looks like it could do with a clean and a re-oil. Passing all that grime through the cog and cassette teeth would be my biggest worry.Boardman Elite SLR 9.2S
