• Working on a new road bike for my girlfriend.

    It has a more or less complete Shimano 600 tricolore groupset, with a very short cage rear mech. Does anyone know if I can get away with a 30t cassette?

    If not, what are the compatible options for a longer-cage Shimano 8 speed rear mech?

    Nearly always, but keep an eye on total capacity too if you're using two chainrings.

    RD-2400-GS or RD-R2000-GS would be your modern wide ratio road mech that's natively 8-speed.
