This is not correct. The All-Rounder and the Longlow were two different frames 
with two different geometries. The All-Rounder was closer to proper touring 
with longer chainstays and 26" wheels in the smaller sizes. The Longlow was 
always considered a 700C road bike, "sport-touring" bike actually, with longer 
chainstays than the mainstream, but still shorter than a proper tourer like the 
All-Rounder. All-Rounder is like Atlantis and Longlow is like Rambouillet.

The fact that some Longlows came with cantis did not change the distinctions 
above, so a canti-Longlow was not called an All-Rounder, at least not with a 
capital A-R.

If stated lower case, as in all-rounder, then you could probably say that 
almost all Rivendells have had all-rounder qualities.
