At which point I will get another bike, I can't let that stop me :P
one very reputable bike fitter said to me that they would much rather people got an accurate fit once they had worked on core strength and flexibility than when they were new to cycling and did not have great strength or range of movement.
At cyclefit I was told the same, in fact we agreed that I will go back again in 4 or 6 months to reassess, my body will adapt to the new posture and at that point we will be able to start squeezing even more power out. Flexibility is fine apparently.
Anyway, I have a lot to think about now, I got some good advices from you all both on stem and on bicycles in general, I'll keep you posted whichever will happen, whether I'll start a custom project or otherwise. Many thanks to you all.

we all like nice things. if you can afford it then go ahead. it's just a little more time riding a bike that fits you may help you make decisions as to what you want out of a custom bike. also if you have a bike that fits you better it may encourage you to ride more, get fitter, more flexible etc at which point your original bike fit will no longer be relevant.
