Would this work with a compact 50/34 chainring and 11-34 rear cogs (ultegra)?

Reliable SRAM Shifting

This replaced a 10spd Rival short cage derailleur that had been swapped around on three different bikes over a period of ten years. I wanted 11-32t capacity and the 11spd Rival 22 rear derailleur has the same cable pull ratio and will work just fine. If you have any basic knowledge of bikes, you can easily install, cable, and tune the Rival RD in just minutes. The shifting is smooth and reliable. I have SRAM Red on another bike and Rival is just as efficient with a slight weight penalty.

Easy to set up, great shifting performance, and minimal fiddling needed to get the indexing perfect. About as easy to get dialed in as any rear derailleur I've ever used. Running a short cage with a n 11-28t cassette.

Red? Naw, Rival will work. Rebuilt my aluminum cross bike with Rival 22 Hydro and am thrilled with the performance and shifting. The medium cage will clear a 32t ring with no worries. Easy to install and setup!

Great shifting

This is my first experience with SRAM, after using both Shimano and Campagnolo systems. The shifting is very crisp, and the rear derailleur took minimal indexing when installed. YouTube has videos from Sram that walk through setup making it a breeze. Very happy with SRAM so far.
