On KING TeC, we use C-drive to describe a frame that, rather than making a completely convex shape, has one side caved in; the drive train rails create somewhat of a "C" shape, thus the name.

These colloquial terms (we have a lot) have been on the team for so long I really can't tell you where they originate from.
