I agree with islaysteve's interpretation that 'anonomous' wants an Atlantis clone frameset for $800. I agree with that sentiment that it is possible. The existence proof of that possibility is the Black Mountain Road framset for $595 is the functional equivalent of a $2600 Roadeo. Rivendell could absolutely clone the Atlantis in a Roadini-like tigged configuration. They have everything they need to do that. They'd just have to decide to do it and prioritize it over their other things.
I personally think that Rivs current inventory of cantilever Sam Hillbornes are perfectly capable road-touring bikes. If you want an Atlantis at half the price, build up a stout Hillborne. If you want a Hilsen at half the price, build up a light Hillborne. That's my opinion.
