It's just a bike in between a touring and a racing bike, optimized for riding long distances. Once upon a time--many years ago--virtually all road bikes were designed this way. Take a look at racing bikes up until and including the 70s; they typically have eyelets and can take fat tires.

2017年5月3日 · Bicycle weight may save you ~5ish lbs but pairing down your touring gear can save you 10-15 lbs pretty easily.

I've never measured, but the bike geometry project said 73 degrees for the seat tube angle. Despite the name and the marketing from 1980, these weren't really designed for loaded touring like the touring bikes sold just five years later. Mine is very whippy with loaded panniers. (But that may relate to the thinner double butted vitus tubing.)
