Dura-Ace 9000 11 speed (11-28)

I have Dura-Ace 9000 11 speed groups with an 11-28 rear cassette, and I wanted to change the rear cassette to an 11-32 (getting old!)

I think the biggest available ratio for this groupset is 11-30?

I was led to believe that the Ultra CS6800 is compatible with the my current groupset and is/was available in 11-32? I check all of the usual suspects, but can't find any availability.

Any suggestions on cost effectively resolving this issue would be welcome.

Ultegra cassette is compatible. Make sure you add a link or two to your chain. The only problem could be the short cage of the rear derailleur. The new 9100 series has a longer cage as standard, listed to accept up to 30 teeth but you will easily be able to get it to work with a 32.

Have a search for what the 9000 could actually handle, I suspect 32 might be pushing it, but here is a video for the 9100 series...
