Several years ago I had a head tube for a 1” fork reamed and faced at the Roseville REI after talking with the mechanic to figure out if he really knew how to do it properly.
If they can do that, I expect they’d have a reamer for a 27.2 seat tube. No guarantees on the mechanics working there now though, but there isn’t anything they can really mess up.
Alternatively Rex Cycles bikes have 27.2 seatposts, though I don’t know if he does anything but build bikes now.

I think Steve Rex is your best bet.

REX Great idea. (don't know why I didnt think of that)
REI Great idea. (some of their locations are underrated as a bike shop)
I will triple check with College Cyclery, that that Fixie-Manbun place down the street from them
Thanks.
