c. Cables/routing and/or wacky angles/not seating in the cable stops.

Best place to start is describe when/why it started doing this. Did it ever shift right to begin with?

Even the brifters can do strange things after high mileage.
It shifted flawless for the longest time. I got the bike 1000+ miles ago. I never got the "initial" 300 mile checkup, from stretched cables and such. I did some manual cable adjusting, and barrel adjusting. Just last week or so, the front derailleur wasn't shifting to the big ring. I followed park tools instructions and got it to work great, it seems to be shifting great right now - the front that is. A few days ago, I just started to notice a little skipping in the larger sprockets of the rear cassette. Only possible thing I can think of that changed was I had a professional fit, and the guy put it on the trainer, so other then putting it on and off the trainer. I can't think of anything that changed/adjusted in the rear.
