I Built the Ultimate Chinese Road Bike for less than $3000 - XLAB AD8 Review

For this video, we build a bike with Chinese components. We weight it, talk about prices and discuss why this bike is a good option in a saturated market. Join us to find out more about what we learned and if you should buy their wheels.

On this channel we hope to provide you with an insight into Chinese bikes and tech without a bias. These videos take a long time to make and edit, and we don't get paid for any of it, so a like or a comment goes a long way towards helping us to continue making this kind of content. If you find it useful, then do let us know.
We hope you enjoy the video.
