Arg.  No joy for me.  The pulley cage on the Empire Pro is non-removable according to Sensah support.

Just received my Sensah Empire Pro groupset today.
No lie.  The retention pin is a non-serviceable part.
If you find a clever way to disassemble, let me know!
I'm too chicken to try myself

Best bet with all the OSPW are to not bother if they are cheap. The bearings are usually unsealed and any benefit that was there is gone in the first few kms. Shifting performance of the Taobao OSPW are horrible vs stock/ceramic speed.

Waste of money.

Agreed.
Adding your own bearings from the likes of enduro or ntn along with the wheel will probably be great.
