Trying to make my Croix de Fer a bit easier to use offroad.

Think the cassette is a 12-28. Anyone know if you can fit a larger cassette on the rear without needing to change the mech?

It looks a bit marginal

My 'baby' CdF i.e. the cheaper Sora one! started off with a 12-25 as standard, which I immediately changed to 12-27. It's currently got an 11-32 on it which the LBS put on when I took it for it's free check up. The rear mech is the same, but I ended up with a new slightly longer chain. If I ever get fit I might revert back to a smaller range on the back, but I'll see how it goes for now.
