Wider Tubulars? Where?

I am about to pull my hair out.
90% of the tubualrs on the market are 23 mm or less.
I can find lots of tubular tires 28 mm or greater designed for cyclocross.
But there is a real dearth of choice in the space between 23 and 28 or greater and designed for road.
Vittoria and Veloflex both make a 24; the Pave and the Roubaix, respectively.
Vittoria used to (?) make a 27 - the Pave, but I can't find it anywhere anymore.
Tufo make a tire called the Elite Ride which is listed as 25.
If I want to run a 28 I have to use something like a Tufo CX tire with a diamond pattern and lower pressure.
Does anyone know of any other tires then the above? Anything in the 25 or 28 range other than the Tufo?
Is the Vittoria 27 mm still made and if so where can you get it??
Help!
