The new T50 has a longer wheelbase and has more upright seating than my Cruzbike Sofrider, so it will climb better than my trusty old bike.
It will be slower than the Sofrider, because the more upright rider on the T50 will be in the breeze -more aero drag.

The new T50 has more joints in the front end than my Cruzbike Vendetta has, so it will not climb as well as the V, which climbs very, very well indeed.

My Cruzbike Sofrider has outclimbed all of the local rear-wheel drive recumbents.
Lightning P38, Bacchetta C2, Bacchetta -Bacchetta-Bacchetta... all the fast local 'bents are dogs uphill, compared to my old Sofrider.
The Vendetta is in its own class and destroys my Sofrider uphill, downhill and no-hills.

To answer your question, I'm not excited about the new T50.
My old Cruzbikes are good enough for me.
