I have a custom bike made for me during the mid 90s from a local fabricator. I rode it sometimes but its just another steel bike. The fit is very similar to any other off the shelf bike, but the ride quality was ever so slightly better. Its stiffer because I like them that way and that was my only request. I think modern carbon bikes within the same price range to your custom jobs are a better deal all the way around. I am bias, only because I think carbon is a superior material. I do think these custom bikes look so much better only its because the tub are thinner and its steel instead of plastic.
