New cassette, do I need to lubricate?

Hi

Just bought a new set of wheels and an additional cassette so I can just swap wheels out with minimal fuss. The cassette is now on the wheel, I just wondered if there was anything I needed to do in terms of lubrication before riding? The chain is of course cleaned and lubed already.

Thanks

Do grease the thread on the lock-ring. It will come off more easily later on. I also grease the freewheel body, which keeps humidity and dirt out, but that's not really necessary. The chain will automatically grease/oil the teeth.
