Telephone cable. Modifiers + Geonodes. Weird twists

So here’s pretty basic stack of modifiers:
We have screw modifer to make a spiral, when use curve modifier to guide it, and when turn it to “pipe” with desired shape with Z-Up enabled:

It mostly work, but create a wierd twists:

Im not really sure why such twists are even happening?

Hmm… maybe your curve is just too curvy ? I assume you do not want the size deformation when using only this…

…so maybe you show the full GN setup ?

Edit: I just noticed… you may check in the screw modifier the calclulate order option
