You don't appreciate this 'feature' of the automatic dropper post? ;)

Yup, I had this issue occur on my 2017 Clem H with the 26.8 seatpost.

What worked, was getting the seatpost knurled by Riv (for free, just pay 
for shipping) OR what was later done was getting the seatpost reamed to 
27.0 and using that size seatpost.

Intermediate solutions involved a layer of blue loctite on the upper 1" of 
seatpost insertion but it wasn't a permanent solution.

Good luck,
Collin in Sacramento
