I set up my Ram 650b/front rack/fenders and used it as a long distance Randonneur bike, and it worked great for that function. I set up the Roadeo with no racks or fenders as a go fast club rider and supported rides. The ride is very similar, but I did notice that the Roadeo seems slightly more responsive to handlebar input compared to the Ram.
--The other point I noticed is that the top tube is shorter. I set up the cockpit similarly with the Ram vs Roadeo (I didn't use a longer stem with a shorter top tube). With the slightly shorter top tube, it makes the drops more comfortable on the Roadeo because the bars are closer. I think the drops on the Roadeo are my favorite position on the bike, while I probably rode more on the hoods of the Ram or at the curves at the top of the bar.
