I own a bike with#12 . It's basically almost black
In the sun you can guess the slight purple gold, wouldn't recommend it if you really want color on your bike


Purple blue is better, have seen 2 Workswell frames last year
The 306 is interesting, but the SL version is not available for single frames... and with this it's not interesting anymore unfortunately. And 4 years ago they offered 380mm handlebars... not available anymore.. also not so nice for me, they just focused on the more common sizes.

If the quality is better than Velobuild or Dengfu?
. Don't know, didn't have one of them, but I read a lot of concerns abut Velobuild. So I guess it's at least better than Velobuild
If you go with internal routing you should use very decent bearings.

In will go with flybike 1136. It's lighter, has a circular seat post and is available by end of February.

You must contact Carbonda. They are the contact for small orders. Regarding the FM1136 I was told the XS will be available by end of this month, minus one which I will take  .
Carbonda will sell the 1136 regularly somewhen this spring, as i heard.

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...

On their website (Translated into English)...

"The aerodynamic design slices through the wind perfectly and is immediately appealing to the eye"

Omg.. 3000€For the frame, painted with this ugly design?! They are greedy. Unbelievable.

Girs bicycles is selling the 306 also.  It's a French company.
What I've seen from the webpage their price is kind of fair.  1399? Still more than you pay at Workswell probably but for that you get also warranty conditions and a direct contact in Europe.

I've been digging around here a bit considering some frames, and stumbled on this topic. It helped me make the connection.

For the US, the WorksWell WCB-R-306 is a Van Dessel Arch65. I almost tried to order one from WorksWell, but my contact at Van Dessel gave me a sweet deal on the Arch65, so I took it. It's more than what it would be from WorksWell, but I know the brand I'm working with and have close to 10 years of experience with them, along with four of their bikes at home (Motivus Maximus LTD, two Full Tilt Boogies, and a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot) and two others have come through at various times (the original Motivus Maximus and original All Day Driver, which I raced at CrossVegas in 2016).

I did pick up an integrated bar from AirWolf since they were one of the few I could find doing a 380/120 bar/stem combo. I'll be building it up with a mix of Shimano Ultegra 8000 Di2 with GRX shifters and brakes, along with items from absoluteBLACK, Velo, Elite cages, Hunt Limitless 60 wheels, and Wahoo Speedplay pedals. Once I have everything and get it all built up, I'll add a pic.
