Ultegra 10 speed
I have just changed my cassette from a 12-25 to 11-28 in anticipation of doing Fred (not that I have been on my bike for 7 weeks because of my knee but that is a dif story!).
I put on a new chain and kept an extra (full) link in it as it seemed about right for the 28 when I was in the big chain ring (the no feed through rear mech and one link overlap method...).
I thought it was fine but checking ALL of the gears the rear mech and chain get caught up when it is in 34-12 and -11. Chances of me EVER being in that combination is zero as I always change up after about 4-5 changes...
on that basis, do you think I will be okay or is it best not to risk it? have already wasted one connector pin!
cheers
(hope this makes sense!)
