I have owned 2 orange Rambouillets, 1 coupled green Rambouillet, and 2 Bleriots. I absolutely loved the aesthetics of all of them. On the other hand, either they did not fit my riding style or they always felt heavy / sluggish. I love to ride fast, smooth, no bags, no extra weight. Other bikes seems to fit those variables better for me. Or maybe I just need a cychologist?
