Bikes: 2013 TREK 7.6 FX

That is 100% correct.. The 2013 7.6 FX has the wrong Front "left" shifter.... It needed to be a Flat Bar Shifter " for a double road crank " Not a triple MTB ... It shifted worse than a Wal-Mart bike. It would drop out in between the 2 chain rings, or just constantly grab at the large one. You could only make it shift one direction correctly.. or fine that fine line, and then you never knew when it would drop out between the 2 chain rings.. ( dangerous )
