Hey! So it’s my first time installing an all new drivetrain (chain, cassette and crank). Honestly pleased with how it mostly seems to be working!
Just stuck the new chain on there and it doesn’t seem to be shifting quite right especially in the smallest chain ring. The chain by the derailleur basically drops and the two chains sit on each other.
I need to lube and oil everything up yet, everything is pretty out the box and clean. But doubt that would change too much ?
New drivetrain, what did I do wrong?

First Thought. I’m thinking that you did not size the chain correctly. Or maybe not at all?
Chain rubbing on small small gear combination. Can either leave it because you usually won’t be on that gear combination, or if you really want to make it right then remove 1 link in the chain.
Chain too long.
your chain is way too long
