"...REAR? with on-the-bar lockout? Don't think that exists. There are lotsa suspension forks with that feature, though..."
I thought I saw one on maybe a TREK NRS that had a cable running from the rear shock to the handlebar with a regular switch on it. I am wondering though whether this is for air shocks only (I was hoping for an oil shock as I weigh 230 lbs).
I think I will follow ROBTHEBIKER's advice and call my local shop on this.
Thanks,
