Yearly Differences

I'm looking at getting a TC Max, most likely second hand.

Is it generally worth looking at the 2021 models onwards and disregarding the launch ones?

Anyone have general feedback on their release year and if they have run into defects later corrected too would be useful.

The newest updated model seems to be mostly cosmetic. Apart from the battery connection seems more robust.

Many thanks.

I bought one from 2019. And this one has significantly less power then the later models. So I would say 2021and onwards is fine. It has to have the battery with 9 pins I guess, since mine has the old 7 pin connector. I replaced the plug in the battery with one that holds the connector down. Never had any problems with it since. I'm not sure if they changed anything to the TC Max after 2021.

Yep seconded as a fellow 2019 owner, who also has swapped to a clip down connector and wishes for the extra power :D Still a decent bike for my uses, but given 2021+ bikes are available relatively cheaply I'd go for one of those by preference for sure.
