Think about it for a second. Kontact is clearly right. The chai is the same length and the number of teeth the same in 11, regardless of whether the largest cassette is 28 or 34. If the chain is sized to work well with the 11-34, it will work with the 11-28.

you could shorten it a few links for the11- 28, bu then you couldn’t use it for the 11-.
34
