I also ordered this Sensah Empire groupset and it arrived in the mail earlier this week. I've only unboxed it, played around with the shifters while holding them in my hand, and weighed the components.
Shifters with cables are 496g, RD was 196. FD was 98g.
Shifting is a bit odd. As you shift the RD lever, you can feel the cable loosening for a bit, then a pull as you turn the lever all the way. All 10 clicks were there, and as you short shift while pulling the cable at the same time, you can feel it being pulled out at equal increments.
The real test will be when my 11speed cassette and chain arrives. I will be replacing a Microshift Arsis 10 speed groupset on my main road bike with the Sensah, and my rando bike gets the Arsis. I only have one set of wheels that support 11 speed cassettes, so a little musical chairs with the components.
