I can only tell you from my experience, but I have the P2C and I love, love, love it!!! The shop owner told me there isn't much difference between the two- but the P3 has much better wheels (the difference in price is $1500). I tend to believe him because he could've told me all kinds of reasons why the P3C is better so I'd spend $1500 more with him (and I've bought 5 bikes from him already, so I think he's shooting straight). I'm sure there are other differences, but I LOVE my P2C. I'm not out to win anything big, just wanted a more aero, carbon, lightweight bike for Ironman races and other tris. I have the 48cm, so it has the 650c wheels (which I also love). It's light as a feather, responsive, strong, and FAST.
I've heard really great things from others I know about the Soloist. I know two others that have one and they rave about it.
Good luck with your shopping, and sorry to hear about your LBS.![]()
