I would stay easy on her for about a month then just throw your pedal to the metal when you want! Be Safe!

Gears simply need a few hot and cold cycles. I did 3 cycles and then my foot was to the floor. It's been 1800miles and I have had zero issue's. I used FRRP gears. The reputation for whine is merely the hardness of the materials. Some brands are harder or softer than others. Softer gears are used on the drag strip for slight flex. Harder gears are for street for longevity and those are the one's that generally whine.
