I just noticed this frame when surfing on AliEx. It looks to be a Tarmac clone, but with some interesting features. It comes with round seat post, T47 threaded BB, 32c tire clearance, internal cable routing and a 950g curb weight. Not the lightest, but not too heavy either compared to other frames in it's price point.

Agree that this is very interesting. I tend to need zero setback seatposts and very few frame manufacturers make them. Unfortunately I think this has a BSA BB given the 68mm width. I know Workswell will make some frames with a t47 68mm wide BB request but most are typically 85.5/86.5mm wide.
