Why Your Next Groupset Will Be From Temu? | GMBN Tech Show 359

We've seen a growing trend of products from Temu or Ali-Express making it to the UK and being given a shot at the limelight on bikes, either as budget replacement parts or as specific bang-for-buck builds. These direct-to-consumer portals are often employed by factories that make quality products and skip the marketing, promotion, and everything they deem unnecessary to maximise their profit. Others, however, do not adopt this approach and, let's say, in our experience, can be of questionable quality. Are you more likely to purchase from Temu or AliExpress now than you have been in the past?
