Hi everyone,
First time climbing proper mountains and heading towards the Pyrenees in a couple of weeks.
Currently have the 2021 Canyon Ultimate CF SL 7 (https://99spokes.com/en-EU/bikes/canyon/2021/ultimate-cf-sl-7) with the original components, meaning a 54-36 chainring & 11-30T cassette combo. I'm pretty confident I will be begging for smaller gears when climbing for a long time, so I was looking to upgrade.
Current set-up:
- Rear derailleur: Shimano 105 R7000 SS, 11-speed, short cage design (max. cassette size: 30T)
- Cassette: Shimano 105 R7000 11-30T 11s
- Chain: Shimano HG601 11-speed
Was looking to "upgrade" to following:
- Rear derailleur: Shimano 105 RD R7000 GS 11-speed, medium cage
- Cassette: Shimano 105 CS-R7000 11 speed 11-34T
- Chain: keep
- Potentially, chainrings to 50-34
Is there anyone here who has experience doing the same, or has the knowledge to confirm?

Those parts are all compatible with each other
