Not many make this rather odd size.

Hmmm...had somebody looking for a post that size at the LBS last week. Originally the guy had a Syncros, I think.

Hacking off the excess of a Thomson is one idea. Not the absolute lightest, though.

Otherwise, just pick any light 28.6 or 27.2 post and see if you can find a shim. I think there are a couple of companies around that make practically every shim size you can think of.

rithey (kalloy) crap clamp
thomson, pretty lite actually, an pretty strong...
selcof (selcof.com) very heavy
ole skool IRD, mega strong, kinda heavy,
ole ringle moby, crap clamp

i've tired all of the above, if u can cope wif inline go for the thomson, i needed a layback that was well strong,so gotta shim and after cuttin 2 lenght was impressed that a race face xy post only weighed 230g

hope that helps
