Hi all,

Radar tells me their closing speed, if they are slowing and how far away. Then I decide to say a prayer. The change of light pattern is incidental.

Quite so, which is why our village 20mph zone covers the whole residential extent. Of course, enforcement is another thing..

No, that's very doubtful while proper testing would be fully destructive.

I had no problems after installing the Shimano 6800 11-speed groupset on a new frame. Your issues sound like cabling might be the cause. Check that the radius on bends is not too tight and that the cable outer enters the rear derailleur straight as explained in the Shimano Dealer Manual document DM-RD0003-02-ENG.pdf on the Shimano website.
I assume you are using the correct cables for this groupset.
Also make sure that you have followed the Shimano instructions (DM-FD0002-03-ENG.pdf) for cable routing for the front derailleur.
