TBH, i don't think there are many people actually knowledgeable enough to make use of made-to-order geo. Being a self proclaimed expert on geo and talking about preferred numbers is very fashionable right now, but few know about the complex interactions of all those numbers. And that is not even taking into account the compromises that have to be made for tire-clearance, shock location, bearing placement, strength-to-weight and how all those numbers react in dynamic ride situations.
Greg Minnaar is one of those who might jot down some numbers and the resulting bike will feel great for him, but for most people such an attempt will probably end badly.
