Matt Asshenmacher, a celebrated custom bicycle manufacturer, told me pretty much the same thing. If you can get a decent fit on a production bike... do it. He did not have any need to worry, he had something like a 24 month waiting list. I suspect that a good LBS can fit over 99% of the cyclists with production bikes.
