In short, there isn't one. In the specific case of the CH Authority, they are supposed to replicate the players bat, so many of the earlier ones were around 3lb. They changed quite quickly and went closer to 2'10 with the bats but the lightest one I've seen is 2'11
Generally speaking, you can have a big bat, or a light bat. To have both is a big ask.
Occasionally a very big bat is available in a light weight, we had a huge Cadejo at 2'9 in stock for a long time earlier in the Summer for example, it isn't something I can simply order 5 of, if we come across one then great, and usually it sells immediately
You can get a custom made bat from a low density cleft but these pieces of wood are very rare. I saw a handful at Hunts today for example and have sold two already. I would be happy to send some photos and discuss if you want to email jake@vitascricket.co.uk
There is a another way that in my experience many Asian brands use. They can over dry the willow to the point where it is capable of making a very big bat but is very brittle and won't last long. The bat can sometimes not be full size or full width, I see many badts with a combination of all 3. There's a CA I am repairing currently that is incredibly dry, Harrow sized and only 104mm wide.
