Which seatpost to replace a Thomson?

Okay, here's my situation: I need a setback seatpost to replace my Thomson Elite setback post. The issue is that, at my saddle height, the collar is pretty much right at the bend. This has already damaged the seatpost, and has the potential to damage the frame as well. So I need to replace it with a seatpost that has the setback up much closer to the saddle clamp. I figured BF might have some suggestions.

What I'm aiming for is something with similar virtues to the Thomson: pretty light at a reasonable price, with a well-designed clamp that is easy to adjust, probably a 2-bolt design, though I'm open to others. The Ritchey posts look pretty good, but I'm interested in any thoughts or alternatives anyone has to offer.
