Without knowing the specific post there are two easy things to do. First cut to exact lenght, second replace steel (my guess is they're steel) bolts with Ti.

And please let me know how much weight you win, because I ordered this post too, and wanted to replace the bolts in titanium too.

I've bought Ti and Al bolts from Tastynuts. Also, our host has a small selection.[/url] There are also some US based sources, do a search, but seeing that you're based in France I believe that Tastynuts or Starbike will be your best bet.
