Why not? I'll just lose it otherwise. It's just hanging there with no force, not doing the bike any harm
I was thinking that by not doing its job[ie binding] then all the riders weight and road shock goes into the unsupported seatpost and might jar it loose from its corrosion.
A bit like riding with the crank bolt removed to help free a stuck crank
Unlikely i know ,but might be worth a try :?
