Actually your recall is incorrect. The Sequoia has 43-ish chainstays. Near-identical geometry to a Ram, except the seatpost. On my 62.5, the SA was 74 degrees! I sold it for that reason; I couldn't get the seat back far enough.
The other diff. between the Ram and the Sequoia is the latter has standard tubing which some prefer the feel of; while others like the solid feel of the OS-tubed Ram. I ride an 83 Expedition now as my daily commuter and it is also a fabulous bike. 73.5 SA but I added an old MTE seatpost with gobs of setback and it's fine. I didn't keep the Sequoia long enough to form an opinion of its ride but the Expedition is fast and responsive; surprising attributes for a touring bike. Of course, with a loaded rear rack it wobbles and wiggles, so it would not be my choice for a loaded tour. Strange attributes for a touring bike, but for my purpose it's great.
