Get a ritchey post for a ritchey frame. If it still slips, it's a ritchey problem.

I've found carbon paste to work miracles with slipping posts.

That said if a good smathering of CP dosen't help then the Cannondale Save carbon post is a very good comfortable post.

Shopping around might get it to under £100.
