Hi,
My wife's new summer bike will have a Shimano 5800 105 groupset with a 11-32 cassette.
On the steep hills my wife would welcome a 11-34 cassette like she has on a winter tiagra equipped bike.
I understand the new Ultegra R8000 groupset can support a 11-34 cassette, does anyone know whether the 5800 105 GS rear derailleur could accommodate that 11-34 cassette?
Many thanks
Chris

The answer is - officially - no.
You might get away with it, or you might need to try with a Wolf Tooth RoadLink or similar.0
