You're right about the weight, at least from my experience. Both bikes are light enough and great. But I say go with the Roadeo, because:
1) It will be a bit newer. 2) You get clearance for Jack Browns with fenders. Ram can't do that. 3) You can go threadless if you want (may be irrelevant depending on your pref). 4) More choices of color 5) Slightly shorter chainstay (if I remember your intended uses correctly) The Rambouillet has the better name however, by a longshot. I am a huge Rambouillet fan, by the way, and I've had mine since 2003. This is a really high class problem.
