At what yaw angle?

What kind of a question is that?!
At ALL yaw angles! That's the beauty of engineering at Pinarello.

It's the first bike to be faster both forwards and backwards.

My expectation is that you will like this bike but not love it.

well it's not a carbon Dogma and it might not take 28s, but he just dropped the price and this bike is gorgeous: https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/b...074043447.html

Yea but that's true with pretty much all bikes, especially when Dan is involved.

Not that that's a bad thing.

I am very drawn to the F8XLight at Chain reaction. Not that I need another bike or a second F8 but given that it was quite hard to find an F8 in my size after my disappointment with the F10...

If you do decide to go that route, join the CyclingTips VeloClub - it's like $100/yr, but you get a 10% off bottom-line discount at ChainReaction and a bunch of other perks - plus supporting their podcast(s), which are excellent, and worth the price of admission alone.

I thought long/hard about going with the F8-Xlight myself, but ultimately decided the disc setup would be a more fun departure for me from what I have and have ridden before.

I've loved a lot of bikes, but only married one so far

You have not ridden the F8 so you may never know what you are missing out The F10 was not bad at all, it was just not as good.
