I'll bet the Rivendell demographic is so diverse and scattered as to defy marketing logic. There are probably people riding Rivs who live a student lifestyle (rent a room; no car) as well as fanatic bicycle collectors (the more rare & exotic, the more interesting). The bell curve is probably pretty narrow in the middle (...'middle aged and well off enough"....) with a statistically disturbing number of outliers :). Personally, I enjoy an inner chuckle when someone comments "Wow, nice old bike!".
