Yet that naked road bike is on a dirt trail in the brochure photo.

I too dug out that brochure this morning!

This rang a bell & I dug out an old Ram brochure.  The geo chart lists HT 
angles at 71 in the small sizes, 72, 72.5, then from 58 on up to 68 
(wowser!) all are 73 degrees.  

The 56 is recommended for riders 5'-5" to 5'-9", and 58 for 5'-7" to 
5'-11".  The specs refer to the color as "an unusual blue" & all photos are 
blue, with no racks, fenders, front bags, saddle bags and just a little 
teensy seat bag.  The bike looks positively nekkid and racy compared to 
most Riv web photos, aside from the Roadeo.

I believe the Rambo is only about a 10 min away from where I live in KC.

That's a really nice offer Chad. Personally I'm really happy its not a
58cm. I'm currently in the thinning the herd process. Perhaps if and when a
58cm that looks like this I be ready to pull the trigger.  Who ever gets
this one will be extraordinarily lucky.

I think this may be the same seller that i bought a bike from last year.  The 
seller also has a 94 RB-1 for sale.  I'd be happy to check the frame out in 
person if someone here is seriously interested in it.  If it was a 52 or 54, 
I'd be all over it!

It's in the old Riv Readers somewhere, but I think the front end geometry
changed over time. The first ones had a 73 degree head angle with a 45 mm
fork rake, at least on the middle sizes.

This looks like the Ram that a list member posted about a short while ago.
Beautiful.
