BS. With the exception of integrated seatposts (which didn't become common until the last 5 years) all road bikes have adjustable saddle height, assuming you don't exceed the limits of safe seatpost clamping. Does it have a tapering aero post? Is that what you mean by "how skinny it gets"? If that's the issue, you can get a new seatpost - the sizes are standardised. However, if you need the saddle low enough to be encroaching on the aero section then it's very likely that the bike is too big for you.

Take a picture of the seatpost/saddle and we can tell you what you need to do.
