Hi all, I have made my decision on my new bike, I wanted the RR 8.1 but would prefer the new colour but I have no idea when that is going to be released so I am going for the Yellowstone 5.0. Does anyone know if it has the bar mounted lock out like the RR? Also I have put my details in on the sizing chart and it says I need a medium frame. I had a medium Kona Kikapu and that was too small and gave me real back problems. I'm 6'2 and I tweated the inside leg measurements on the chart by 2 cm and now it says a large which sounds better. I will only be doing light trails no xc. Cheers

    no remote lock out, it clearly shows this on the page and it would state it if it was " RockShox Recon Silver TK Solo Air " thats roughly an extra £160 for a slight fork upgrade and an extra gear over the RR8.1, still loses out on brakes and crank though
