wow...yaw...wow...yet ANOTHER attempt to have zero trim adjustment when it has failed every single time sram or shimano has tried to do it. Too many variables with different frames.

The vast improvement here is the chainrings in the shifting. not the FD.
Don't think YAW on FD will improve shifting... but it will improve usable gear range on grey zone. I am wondering if Chain ring makes all the difference... wonder if Praxis chain ring already got it right...?
