Seat height for casual riding

I ride about 15 miles a day and trying to determine the proper seat height. I ride with two mountain bike riders and I am the only BMX. So would it be best to Jack my seat up until my legs are straight at the bottom of the crank? We don't do tricks really just riding but I don't want to upgrade to a larger bike.

Whatever works best for you, its also why dropper posts get put on MTB bikes, sometimes you want it up for pedaling, sometimes you don't for rough stuff... The correct number of bikes is expressed as N+1..

A quick release clamp may be your friend, I can adjust mine on the fly most times (no dropper)
