"But otherwise... What would I be missing between a Legolas and my canti-Rom, aside from the name?"
Functionally very little difference. Maybe a couple mm in extra clearance for the max tire size? Maybe a couple mm of higher BB height (less BB Drop). Fancier looking lugs and for me the all-important seatstay caps on a MUSA Legolas. Paint choice on a made-to-order Legolas. But from a functional riding perspective a canti-Rom would be hot! Set that baby up!
