I might swing for a modern silver post if the diameter is the same.

Thanks.

P.S. Lets not start the frame sizing debate. I like my bikes the way they are.
I'd look for a setback Thomsom post in silver and in your required diameter. Their lengths are 250 mm, 330 mm, and 440 mm. 440 is RRREEEAAAlly long. I use 250s, and Mrs. Road Fan's Cannondale could benefit from a 330. The setback of a Thomson is not extreme and probably matches the setback of your stock post.
