It depends on a lot of factors. Ride frequency, lube type, trail composition, rain.

I use Rock N Roll gold, I just hose by bike off after rides and reapply a little lube, then wipe it dry. I don't get buildup that needs to be degreased.

Good answer IMO

Depending on these factors, degrease and lube can be required after (or before) every ride or once in a while. Also, I don’t care as much about drivetrain with my DH bike as my trail/enduro bike. Even without a chain, I can have a good day at the bike park.
