Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Despite Shimano's spec that the Ultegra rear derailleurs are rated for a maximum rear cog of 27T, the ability to handle a 30 or 32 tooth cog will depend on your bikes hanger dimensions. In general, most users report the Ultegra rd will handle a 30T big cog with no problems and 32 is marginal, some do and some don't.
