On my bike I went for compact as well, the ultegra 6700 stuff with the largest cassette in the back, so the lowest gear is 34 to 28 me thinks.
I am still in conflict whether I shouldn't have gone for a triple instead, but when I commissioned the bike it was what was recommended and I didn't know anything about gears.
Apart from Beachy Head, where my lungs folded inside out and I was praying for some smaller gear I was fine with it so far.
Anyway, changing from compact double to triple in ultegra 6700 land means changing nearly everything. It's just not compatible. Sucks ...
Do you mean the Enigma tourer?
50/34 with 11-28 is not really considered a full-on touring set-up, and is'nt expected you help you carry much weight.

If its only slightly out a 33T chainring from TA will help.

If you dont really carry much then I'd suggest lots of HTFU ;)
