As long as everything is correctly adjusted, lubed, and tightened, you won't see much difference. The shifting might get smoother but that's about it, and that's only if the bike gets it's 30 day tune up. In fact, if you don't keep up with maintenance, it will tend to get sloppier. A break-in period on a bike gives the cables time to stretch and wear in, requiring re-adjustment. Any smoothness in the shifting will be masked by the need for readjustment after a break-in.High-end road bikes that use campagnolo ergopower shifting systems tend to shift better (smoother) after a month of steady riding, but then they don't get any worse until they get _really_ old, years later.
Not really. Although some people prefer the feel of the brakes after a few miles. what does happen routinely is that the cables stretch after the first few rides. It is pretty normal to have to have your gears and brakes adjusted after a couple of rides with new cables.
What kind of clothing do I need for cycling under every weather condition?
YES,The drive train will shift smoother and the chain will be quieter. New chains are sometimes subject to a "Stiff Link".
Just keep things clean and well lubed, after the first 100-150 miles. Use something like Pedro's Ice Wax if the conditions are dry and dusty.
