A company manufactures street, mountain, and racing bicycles. The company wants to use product variants to control bicycle configuration. You need to configure the bicycles in the system. What should you do?
A.
Create mountain, street, and racing bicycles as separate configuration models.
B.
Use one item number for all types of bicycles. Use a separate configuration number for each type of bicycle.
C.
Use different item numbers for mountain, street, and racing bicycles.
B option looks to be correct, as Product variant means in case of Pre-defined variant, Configuration, Color, Size and Style, so you can create a product master, with single item number, and then create various configuration number for each of the different configuration of bicycle.
The answer given is only true if the Mountain, Street and Racing are actually configurations of the same basic product. Otherwise the answer should be C. There needs to be some commonality of construction and/or Cost, or they are actually different products (which could then have configurations themselves if needed and it is applicable). This is a really poor question
Why Option B? Single Item Number: A Product Master (e.g., “BICYCLE”) unifies all bicycle types, meeting the “product variants” goal. Configuration Control: Using the Configuration dimension (e.g., Street, Mountain, Racing) as variants allows differentiation while keeping one parent item. Manufacturing Fit: Predefined Variants: If the differences are simple (e.g., just type), generate three variants. Dimension-Based Configuration: If production varies (e.g., different BOMs for Street vs. Racing), link Configurations to manufacturing rules.
Flexibility: Variants can be selected at order entry or production, aligning with “control bicycle configuration.”

Product configuration models let you build a generic product structure that can be used to configure many product variants for a single product.
B is correct - Variants would include Street, Mountain or Racing as styles
A is not correct - Configuration Models use attributes, not variants to define differences.
C is not correct - Different item numbers for each type of bicycle does not require variants
Agrred that the question is poorly worded, as if they're are different components with the three types of bicycles, then C could also potentially be true.
correction to above, the configuration model would use attributes, but upon selecting all attributes a new variant is created. So A could also be argued to be correct. I agree with Jasenz this is a very poorly worded question.
A looks correct as it configures a product based upon configuration from customer.
