I didn't find any FD issues, but only shifted the FD a few times. Just note that I don't have an indexed front shifter (Campy QS) and have four small chainrings so YMMV with a "normal" setup. What I like about the daVinci is that I can cross-chain to my heart's content, but not to be abused of course. We'll take a more serious ride with a bit of climbing on Saturday, but things are looking good. I'm almost not surprised that it shifts better than my 9-spd setup since I'm not certain the daVinci mod the the SRAM RD does exactly what needs to be done to adapt Campy shifts. daVinci's a solid company so I may still be tempted to try their 10-spd SRAM RD when it's available.
