Hi,

This may be an odd question, but which lightish saddles are relatively tall in that the top of the saddle is quite a way above the rails? Rather than buy a new 400mm seatpost to ensure I have 10cm of post in my frame, with a taller saddle (I need a new saddle in any case) I could use my 350mm ti post. My old flite has a height of 4cm, I have a ti Nisene which is 6cm, but are there any others which are fairly tall?

Thanks in advance.
