The seat post can be swapped out for a longer model, which will also reduce weight. I use a Kalloy 400 mm one. Handlebars aren't quite as easy to extend, the post is proprietary, depending on which handle bars you have, you might be able to put on a set of riser bars and get some additional reach.

Got pictures?
