has anyone running a triple front der with a 50/34 compact. my ultegra double works but it's quite a stretch on the brifter upshifting. want to downgrade to 105 to get a black fd to match my frame and the black ones on ebay these days are mostly trips.

Get an FSA compact der. it works very well. Just installed one for a cylcocrosser with up shift troubles today.
