There's a difference between buying an OTP bicycle and a custom made-to-measure bicycle.
car analogy don't work as they're both OTP.
I would advised OTP since the individual don't quite know what he want and (AFAIK) hasn't ridden such bicycle yet.
Surly Steamroller, Charge Plug, Specialized Langster (alu), Gary Fisher Trition, etc. all from the top of my head, buy them, ride them, and figure out exactly what kind of riding you want to do in the future.
