I have two SS coupled bikes, a bilenkey tandem and an old (1984) Trek 620. 
 I don't think it makes any difference  in the ride, but it can make a 
difference in the packing.  I would suggest you use a bike builder with 
experience and just his/her judgement about the latter.  Having two 
somewhat equal sections makes it easer to stow, both in a case and in a 
car.  I have had more hassle with the cable disconnects, poorly positioned, 
when trying to clamp a TT in a repair stand.

Tandem's require a great deal more thought and experience.  I've got that 
one dialed in.
