Cassette advise please

bikeit65

I will soon be changing bikes and would like some advice regarding chainrings and rear cassettes, my current bike the Cannondale Caad 10 has a compact 50/34 front chainrings and the back cassette is 12/27 10 speed.
I will be getting the new Ultegra 6800 compact 50/34 front chainring and would like to get something similar to the 12/27 but its not available in 11 speed, so what should i get?

What is the issue thats puzzling? if you get the 11 -28 you will have a higher and lower gear.

Agree with previous posters - 11-28 will provide you with a slightly wider range of gears to help going up and down hills; the additional sprocket will spread the gear ratios out so it should feel very similar to your current set up across the gears.
