The "SL" in the Tempo frame tubing description would infer it is different somehow, possibly in having a butted seat tube.
That's even more interesting. Especially since the Prelude lists as seamless but the Voyageur does not. I'm in midterm prep mode so I'm glossing over a lot of things apparently.
