The Randonee was a "real" touring bike with oversized tubes and 36 spoke wheels and 3x10 drivetrain and mounts for front and rear racks. The ADV 2.1 (https://www.rei.com/product/159858/c...es-adv-21-bike) is not a "real" touring bike, doesn't have the wide range drivetrain and all the rack/fender mounts.

The ADV 1.1 (https://www.rei.com/product/220761/c...es-adv-11-bike) is a "real" touring bike, is kind of the successor to the Randonee.
