What Happened to the S30?

I have been riding my 'RANcchetta' for about 20 years now. (RANS Ti-rex frame with Bacchetta seat and tweener bars). It is super comfortable when I get everything dialed in, but the Ti frame flexes so much I can watch the bottom bracket move while pedaling. If I hold the bike by the BB and shake it back and forth, it flexes like a swimming fish. Hey, MBB bike, but not in a good way. I have been looking to get a new bike, was looking at the Corsa, but the BB is soooo dang high for shorties like me. Then I recalled Cruzbike, and me likey :). I would go for the V20c, but my experiments with seat angle tells me that 30 degrees is the magic spot, at least on my current bike. I know the S40 would work, but I think the S30 would be ideal.
Are there any S30's still lingering about?

Suggestion: get a v20c and put a wedge under the seat to change the seat angle to 30 degrees. That's what I and several others here have done.

Edited to add: here's a photo of mine but there are other examples on the V20 sub forum.
