Big-sized Roadeos have same tubing thickness as Ram.

From what I recall ( having owned a Ram) that the Ram and Hilsen were both made from the same  wall thickness tubing  ( 8-5-8).  The Roadeo has thinner tubing from what I read. The Hilsen had better tire clearances. My Ram would only barely  fit a Jack Brown in front w/o fender. The back would fit a 37mm Pasela.  Some of the last Ram's had mid fork braze on's too. 

It was a great riding bike, the lack of clearance in front led to me selling it.

I thought the Rodeo was a direct decendant of the Ram but it seems like maybe the Ram was halfway between a Rodeo and a A Homer Hilsen? Is it just a Hilsen without good rack mounts? Does Rivendell keep an archive of older stuff somewhere on their site?
