The control mechanism can be configured to activate the first mechanical energy source to contract the lower post and the upper post to a first predetermined position.

Automatic drop seatpost

An apparatus including an upper post, a main post, a control tube, a tension spring, and a hydraulic reset. The upper post can include a compression spring. The main post can be configured to telescopically mate with the upper post. The control tube can be rotably coupled to the main post. The tension spring can be configured to pull the upper post to the main post. The hydraulic reset can be configured to compress the compression spring. The upper post and the control tube can be configured to selectively lock the upper post to the control tube at at least two positions. In a first position of the control tube, the control tube can be configured to engage the compression spring. In a second position of the control tube, the control tube can be configured to disengage the compression spring.
