A second hand lyrik listing says it’s a debonair RC

I thought RC meant it was a charger but I googled it and rockshox says the RC debonair is a charger 2?!

I think the adjusters are different. They don't actually say charger 2 on the outside though.

They look different on the top caps going on my forks. I have a 2017 Pike RC which is a charger but it’s dofferent to the rct3 charger 2 in my Lyriks.

Might be able to tell by top of air leg being cassette tool fitting rather than 24mm flat bolt?

Don't quote me on that though.

A lyrik debonair will be charger 2, assuming that it is as described. You can also get 2018 Lyriks labelled as Solo airs that were in fact debonair, so don't be surprised if it turned up and says Solo Air on the back.

how About the writing on the damper cap?

Is the bigger bolder foild used on the charger 2 only?

There are plenty of tell tale signs. For example the adjuster looks nothing like the last 10 years of Rockshox forks, or easier to spot the rebound adjuster on a charger 2 is black, but it's red on a charger 1 I believe.
