I've never seen a Specialized Sequoia in person. Maybe they're more common on the west coast, but around here, you'd have a better chance of finding a Heron Road, or Riv Rambouillet used. I've also never understood why the Sequoia has such status here. It's not very "Riv-ish". To me, the first tenet of Rivishness is a slack seat tube. Everything else is built around that. The Sequoia has a 74 degree STA. Sure, you can set a super setback seatpost, but that makes the reach to the bars way too long, and upsets the whole aesthetic.

I would like a Roadini, but it's going to be a while, and I'm going through some money constraints right now, and I don't mind fixing up something else in the interim. I have a Cheviot right now, and it's my primary main bike for everything. I also have a Surly CC that I built up with an Alfine IGH 8 and Albatross bars, but I keep that at Mom's so when my bro and I visit we have a bike to bang around on to blow off steam.I would really like a decent smooth steel frame that will take at least a 32-38 tire, and I can build up either with another IGH/albatross or a cassette and drop bars depending on my whims. Something zippier than my Cheviot but not a straight up triathlon bike.I'd like to get my hands on a '86 Schwinn Passage (my brother has this bike and it's an incredible) or an early/mid 80's Trek 720. But these things are going for PREMIUM money, almost ridiculous. I value them as $200-300 bikes, but they are listed at $800+ and it boggles my mind.Any other comparable frames to the above two I mentioned that I should be looking at? What about Motobecanes? Do they have standard sizing for components or am I going to be banging my head against the wall finding French sized parts?Biking is something I enjoy, and I can do basic bike MX and can learn the stuff I don't know, but I am not deep in the weeds of dorkdom when it comes to bikes. I have other much deeper passions. I probably won't build a wheel, but I can replace a BB. I know what I like and what I want when I see it, if I'm pointed in the correct direction by those who know. Hence this query.
