Going for a thinner post will for sure give more flex maybe go Ti and a more comfortable saddle .Love the Klein.

Not surprised! Any reason to run such high pressures? If you dropped to eg 80psi it would probably make a bigger difference than changing the seatpost. Plus lower pressures are faster apparently.

The -17 stem finally arrived (after waiting for around a month and a half). Looks much nicer, but not sure my back entirely loves it yet. Also added a new seatpost clamp.
It's really fun to ride, but definitely quite harsh with 130psi tubs and a 31.6 post. Has got me riding loads and with a smile on my face, which is the main thing! Having some minor slipping issues (I think) due to sanding of the seatpost clear coat/graphics. Will need to fid a solution. I actually have a 27.2 shim and a nice 27.2 post. Anybody know if the thinner post might make the ride a little less harsh?
