It's 100% the WCBR306. If you check all the design lines along the fork and rear triangle etc it's the same frame.

Edit: I have no experience with this seller, but here are the links:

Really interesting frames as well.
I tried to do some digging on them. What I noticed is that the seller also offers an Epic Evo fullsuspension copy. Two friends of mine also got really lightweight Epic fullsuspension frames through "allstarbicycle.com" where a couple of guys I know had purchased SL7 and Epic hardtail copies with no problems at all for a few years now.
The Epic FS geo cad table illustration, some pictures and the font on allstarbicycle.com are exactly the same as for the Epic frame from the seller you linked.
Now unfortunately the Epic fullsuspension frames which my friends probably bought from the same seller/factory unfortunately cracked at the BB and chainstay after very few rides. While they are receiving replacements and people have been happy with other frames from that website, I guess I would be careful about the super lightweight stuff from them.
Some pictures of the failures and comparison screenshots of the alibaba seller/allstarbicycle.com attached.

Does anyone know anything about the two frames below? Can't find anything at all about these frames via Google search. I am looking for a frame for a somewhat weight weenie build but I'd like to have fully integrated cables and these frames look like they might fit the bill:

I have just written ICAN an e-mail about these. I will share if there is any new info.

the Geo date, and carbon wheel/ carbon handlebar for choosing,
Is it possible to get a total weight for
- frame (preferably size large)
- motor
- battery
- all electronics needed to finish the build

Thanks in advance!

Omg.. 3000€For the frame, painted with this ugly design?! They are greedy. Unbelievable.
Well Blue Chinook G2 is the same thing as well as someone mentioned earlier in this thread...same price too :-X

By total coincidence I just found out that a local brand seems to be selling the wcb-r-306 as their high end aero road bike: Baldiso Airflight One https://www.baldiso.com/airflight1

...at least it looks strikingly similar...

I have used mtb and road rims from them some years ago, quality was great. Recently I tried to purchase a handlebar from them but didnt get a reply unfortunately.
They do have some interesting frames and handlebars.

nope, unfortunately they never replied...
I did actually go ahead and order this handlebar/stem combo which seems to be identical to the "The One Pro" handlebar:

I went for #14, paid today. I'll keep you updated in case anyone is intersted.

Thanks for the super helpful reply. By purple blue you mean no11 or no16?

Anyone ever bought this frame? About to pull the trigger as it seems to be the only option for a proper roadbike with 34mm tire clearance for my training/commuting wheelset. Could be the perfect do it all bike. Cant decide on the colour though...I think it will be one of the chameleon colours they offer.

Only gripe is its really quite expensive...incl handlebar, seatpost, paint, duty free shipping to Germany 1300$...but I would expect the quality to be much better than velobuold/dengfu etc?

Your frame has no problem just keep riding it. All my mountainbikes have marks like this eveywhere after some time.

Has anyone tried using 30c tires and confirm they fit? If so what wheel and tire combo are you using?

I tried fitting Specialized Roubaix Pro tires (labeled as "30/32") paired to ENVE G23 wheels (23mm internal). Could not even mount the wheels front or back for lack of clearance.
Did you ever measure your tires actual width with a caliper? Because you also said those tires wont fit the vb 168 when other people say 34mm actual width tires clear frame and fork..

Wow, seems like there actually are plenty of bars to choose from, thanks for the input. I had the idea to check Yishun where I once ordered some rims and it actually looks like they manufacture the "The One" handlebars...? I think I am going to try the HB058.

https://www.yishunbike.com/product-category/components/components-frames/components-frames-handle-bars/road-bars/

Their HB088 also looks suspiciously similar to the "The One Pro 2022" handlebar/stem combo. While not exactly the same (steerer clamping, topcap interface), there are lots of elements like the cable routing area under the stem and the chamfer along the tops that are identical.

15
Is anyone aware of "chinese" handlebars designed with an oval hole at the stem clamping area for routing brake cables through the stem like the FSA ACR or Deda DCR systems require? Example picture attached. I wasn't able to find a single one so far on aliexpress but many of the modern road bikes implement such stems/handlebars/headsets so surely something should be available? I would like to avoid spending 300€ on something like Deda, Vision or 3T.
Cheers,
Tim
