Scott Foil RC
Aero racers. Addict RC if you want light; Addict Gravel if you want dirt.
Scott's aero race bike — a benchmark for 'this is how you do aero' in recent reviews. Stiff, fast, still a race stack/reach chart.

Racers and fit riders who want Giant's race geometry without Propel's deep tubes.
Giant's lightweight race bike: compact sloping top tube, sharp steering, and a fit that has been a stack/reach reference for a long time. Less aero drama than Propel.
Fast road riders who want Orbea aero. Orca if you care more about weight.
Aero Orbea race bike. Deeper tubes than Orca, same size run so many riders can twin the two on stack/reach.
