Hello fellow Ann Arborite!!!!

I have not read the other users responses and will just respond to your original post...

I have and have had many roadbikes...Specialized Roubaix, Trek Pilot 1.2 are bikes from my past. I currently have a Look 595, BH Connect, Blue CX6.5 and a Cervelo P2C.

They all fit great despite their wildly variable geometries. What I have found is, as long as the frame is a good general fit, you can get comfortable by changing all the things around it...saddle, saddle angle, saddle fore-aft position, seat height, seatpost setback, crank length, stem length, stem angle, bar height, bar rotation, brifter placement, bar width and a couple other things...

Course, once you're COMFORTABLE on the bike, that does not mean the ride quality will be great. The quality of the actualy ride you experience will be a combination of the fit and fit tweaking...but also the frame material, frame geometry, wheel, tire, tire pressure, etc.

If you're set on going custom, and you don't have the experience of having owned or test ridden zillions of bikes, you really just have to trust the fitter's judgement...or the bike builders judgement. Ask around on what custom builder or fitter to use before taking the plunge!

Locally...Scott Quiring has a very good reputation as a builder...and I think Jess at Two Wheel Tango is a excellent fitter!
