Fitting a Jet 9

A friend let me borrow his Jet 9, a great bike! In fact he wants to get a nicer bike & sell me this one cheep. Unfortunately, the seat tube on the Niner is way too steep. The tip of the saddle can only be 4 cm behind the bottom bracket. My current 26er bike has the saddle 11cm back of the BB & i like the fit. I have never seen a 7 cm set back seat post.
Any ideas on how to make this work?
Thanks.
