As above is the question?
Cotic Soul
Actually scratch that just realised it has a 31.6 so I'm talking garbage. I blame a lack of coffee
Not sure if any steel HT is that big, but my S-Works Stumpy M5 alloy HT has a 30.9mm seatpost.
All my steel bikes use 27.2 or thinner.

27.2 on old soul and 31.6 on newer version.
I think the Ragleys are 30.9mm
Original BFe.
Edit 30.9 or bigger.
A new Soul would be nice .....
Evil Sovereign takes a 31.6 post. Don't think there are too many steel HTs that do...
If you're basing the 30.9mm requirement around a current/future dropper seatpost, remember you can get 30.9mm-31.6mm seatpost shims so you can run a 30.9mm dropper in a 31.6mm frame if needed. USE, problem solvers, others?
shims = superstar (*ducks the low flying bombers*) excellent proper ally not cheap USE plastic
Santa Cruz sizes are 30.9mm not sure about steel.
Pre 2012 Whyte 19s are 30.9mm, at least the 2010 and 2011 were. Nice frames too.
"shims = superstar"
but they don't offer a 30.9-31.6mm shim?
I quite like the plastic USE ones. seem to slide against a post okay, better with a little grease/carbon paste. Treat them a bit cack handed ime and its then that they crack
but they don't offer a 30.9 - 31.6
So they don't! Stupid Superstar 🙁
