You might want to check out SpryCss
One main feature is that most of the package size is from the Sass Variables Maps. So if you remove breakpoints, colors, or spacing variables that are not needed in your project then the size reduces. Or increases if you add more. By default it comes with 3 breakpoints, but for most of my projects I only use 2 and I don't use all the colors which brings it down to about 9kb gzipped.
