I have a 2012 Cannondale Synapse with original official spec parts. My rear derailleur is a Shimano 105 5700, and my current cassette is a Tiagra 10 Speed 12-28.
Ive been looking at switching to a Tiagra 10 Speed 12-30 as I understand I lose out a little on the approach to the largest cog, but the upshot is that final one is bigger, which I sometimes need when I hit the bigger hills near me.
I've been looking at Wiggles site and a few questions have popped up about sizing and they get mixed responses. Some saying cannot work with the short cage RD, some say will work, others say may have issues.
Can anyone say comprehensively one way or the other if its a none starter, or I will be ok, and will it just be the usual tweaks needed (adjusting B Screw and re calibrating gear barrel?)
