SENSAH 2X12S Team Pro Carbon Shifter ONLY (compatible 105 R7000 R8000 7120 RD)

The reviewer tests the SENSAH Team Pro shifters to convert an 11-speed Shimano 105 rim brake groupset to 12-speed. They state the shifters are designed to work with the pull ratio of 11-speed Shimano rear derailleurs and a 12-speed cassette. They find the shifting performance to be excellent, with crisp, tactile, and perfectly indexed shifts. The shifters are lighter than Shimano 105, have a carbon blade, and feature premium, grippy hood rubbers comparable to Shimano. The braking feel is on par with Shimano. However, the reviewer criticizes the SRAM DoubleTap-style shifting mechanism, finding it less intuitive than Shimano's system and noting it can sometimes cause accidental brake actuation during shifts. They conclude the product is an excellent solution for building a budget 12-speed rim brake bike or upgrading older bikes, but see little point in upgrading from a fully functional 11-speed groupset just for 12-speed.

The reviewer mentions the SENSAH Team Pro shifters briefly, stating they enjoy how they shift, describing them as crisp and smooth, similar to Shimano 105 shifters. They note a slightly different mechanism but highlight the value at $80 Canadian for both shifters. The reviewer also mentions that these shifters pair well with the 105 front and rear derailleurs.

The reviewer mentions the SENSAH Team Pro shifters as part of their AliExpress bike build. They state that two shifters cost $85 Canadian, which they consider a really great price. The reviewer combines these with Shimano 105 components, describing this combination as the 'gold standard' for an AliExpress build. They express satisfaction with this setup for their needs, though they haven't moved to electronic groupsets yet.
