Budget AliExpress Carbon Groupset – How Does It Ride?

We recently bought the Sensah Empire Pro groupset from AliExpress and Ollie did an unboxing video. The groupset is 12-speed, with carbon shifters and derailleurs, and cost just $300. It’s cheap, but how does it ride? We promised you we’d put it on a bike to find out, so here it is… Alex takes our budget AliExpress groupset bike for a test ride!
