Note how high the FDER has to sit, else it doesn't clear the 32T ring. The angle of the picture exaggerates it somewhat, but it's still gawdawful ugly.
It needs a bit of "help" to get to the biggest ring. The 22-32-38 shifts noticeably better.
Just as an aside, have you tried a "road" or CX70 FD, Bill? Sure the lower contour of the cage will be totally wrong for such small chainrings, but it might let you set the FD lower for better shifting.
