I use a Miche cassette with 30 teeth for touring. Keep in mind though that your derailleur has to have a long enough cage to wrap the extra chain needed as you add teeth to the large cog. In my experience, the normal long cage Campagnolo derailleurs work fine up to 29 teeth, but 30 teeth won't go. The solution is to find a Comp Triple rear derailleur.
