I think Rivendell ownership generally works like this: If you didn't get a custom first, you probably won't. I think it is more likely that someone who has already invested big dollars in a custom will later pop for a less expensive production "second Rivendell", than a production first-timer will "move up" to a custom. This is for the reason I originally stated..once you've got a gorgeous Atlantis/Hunqapillar/Sam, etc. sitting in the living room, I think it would be hard to believe a custom would be "way better". Those production owners are more likely to be drawn to a completely different experience from a builder who *only* does customs. An A.N.T bike with dedicated racks and a Rohloff hub, for example.
