the speed pros and mu sl (and some other premium models have a T handle monoblock (not exactly monoblock but 2 pieces tig welded together) with required the syntace clamp (same as tern verge x11).
the jetstream is monoblock too but it has the standard clamp welded on top rather than the T. The jetstream is direct mount.

most D models have telescopic handlepost.

then, there are also different version depending of headseat angle and color and folding (inside or outside)

having had 2 telescopic version, 1 jetstream and 1 T version (with litepro clamp and now syntace), i much prefer the T with syntace that feel solid and confortable.
