I'm considering a quick release seat post clamp. I intend on using the bike to learn dirt jumping, but it will also be a rider. A quick release clamp seems like a good solution for flexibility.

I will likely have the seat pretty low when jumping, so slipping shouldn't be that big of a problem. I have one on my MTB and it has never slipped, but I've never come down hard on the seat.

Thoughts? Any reason I shouldn't use a quick release?

Had one for years. Never slipped--although I don't land on my seat. If you're landing on your seat you have other things to worry about.
