My Rockshox dart 2 came with lockout. Do yours have lockout also?
Nope, thats accounts mostly for the price difference. Wasnt a big deal for me and the shocks are a good medium shock. I have had it out on trails for about 4 weeks now and still love it, brakes have no need to upgrade and the bike has handled some pretty nasty terrain with some nice wipeouts.
