My charge spoon is 50mm from bottom of rails to the top of the saddle.
An extra 10-15mm would be handy.

Any saddles out there other than a brooks that are a bit taller than average.

Have a look at WTB saddles. Also the Fizik Arione is quite tall, would guess the Aliante and Antares would be similar aswell.

I'll measure my Arione later if I remember.

was just about to suggest a flux which afaik is same as a spoon - they are taller than other saddles I've used so dunno if you'll find much bigger.

Put the seatpost up...?

Quite possibly there is something obvious I'm overlooking...

Dropper post already in minimum insertion mark and not quite long enough. It's ok bit another 10mm or so would be nice on long climbs.
