I am looking for a post with 2" or greater setback. The post with the furthest setback that I can find is the Thomson SP-E110SB, however it doesn't look like enough setback and it is expensive. Are there other options with more setback and are less expensive?

That seatpost has basically the same amount of setback as a normal seatpost. If you're looking for something relatively inexpensive, try the Kalloy 374. If you want something a little nicer, check out a Race Face XY.

You want a Velo Orange Grand Cru. Those have 40mm setback, which is about as much as you can get without resorting to a Selcof Biposition or the crazy Rivendell/Nitto steel post.
