Easy. Use an $8 rear derailleur.

In all seriousness, if times are slow, I can see Rivendell doing an 
interesting one-off campaign and charging just enough to cover costs, with 
the real goal of keeping the craftsmen ( Nobilette, Bell, Abele & co) 
working. Such is their ethos. In any case, in the Blahg, Grant mentioned 
that cost is controlled through modifying existing designs, and making most 
details, including color, non-negotiable. Again, I'm intrigued as to what 
will turn out!
