The fanciness of the Rambouillet intimidates me, to be honest.  My other 
tall bikes are purpose-built and very workman-like, and they get the job 
done, so the Ram just isn't getting the use it deserves.  Plus I prefer 
Redwood green over Rambouillet blue.  Perhaps I'd feel differently if I had 
one of the orange ones...
