Jourdain Coleman - Chinese Carbon Super Bike… Full Parts Rundown and Cost!

Description

I know people will ask about the costs and components used in my AliExpresss superbike build so I created this video while I wait for the final parts to arrive.

If you are unsure how to buy from AliExpress, you may have a little more confidence and understand the whole process after watching this video. Overall my experience buying bike parts from China has been pretty smooth so far.

Sensah Empire Pro 6 Kits 2x11 Speed 22s Road Groupset R/l Shifter+rd Derailleurs + Cassette/chains Carbon Fiber Or Aluminium - Bicycle Derailleur

Created: July 09, 2022

The reviewer discusses the Sensah Empire Pro Group set as part of their Chinese carbon bike build. They mention choosing this group set due to positive online reviews, its aesthetic appeal resembling Shimano 105, and its competitive pricing at $272 without brakes. The reviewer opted for the aluminum version over carbon due to the minimal weight savings not justifying the extra cost. They highlight the 11-speed configuration, SRAM-like shifting mechanism, and the inclusion of a long cage rear derailleur compatible with a 32-11 cassette.
