Is the seat post clamp in front of the mounting tabs or behind it? Moving it to the front will gain you a couple inches.

Why don't you flip the clamp under the seat around the other direction (the right way)? That would move it back over 2 inches...

Use a BMX style bent/layback seat post.

I got one on my 20" "Grape Krate" for more leg room.

Perfect.
