  • Similar situation, I've been trying to find a concise definition of the different models, but there seems to be a conspiracy of confusion/obfuscation.... what is a 'C' line vs 'A' mudguards ? I've got that the 'P' has Ti forks and rear triangle, and the 'T' has a Ti frame too... is that it ? TIA for any help.

  • The C and A are new names introduced in 2021 for the classic steel design, the A having various cheaper components. The P line is similar but has a Ti fork and a significantly different (also Ti) rear triangle that takes different gear options (such as the 4 speed derailleur).

    The T-line introduced many redesigned parts and has very little in common with the older models, other than sharing a rear triangle with the P-line. The major frame parts are Titanium and it has carbon forks.

    The G-line has 20 inch wheels, disc brakes and shares some superficial design choices with the T-line, but is steel with an aluminium fork.

    The pre-2021 Titanium models are similar to the A and C line but their forks and rear triangles and some other small parts are Ti, but with no significant compatibility differences.

    Before 2021 bikes were known by a 3 letter/number code indicating their handlebar shape, number of gears and rack/mudguard-having-ness. There was also a thing called a B75 which was a precursor of the A-line.

  • Meant to @Gren.

    Affordable (Heavy quotation marks).
    Classic.
    Premium (steel frame)
    Top end (titanium frame).

    Is how I remember. As for parts interchangeability, A and C are basically interchangeable, while P and T often do their own thing.

  • Carbon bars and crankset too.

    Probably too flash as a daily, that said, it's the one I'll get if I do upgrade my current one.

    The T-line introduced many redesigned parts and has very little in common with the older models, other than sharing a rear triangle with the P-line. The major frame parts are Titanium and it has carbon forks.
