Picture no match specs...   I got this bike three weeks ago, it has lockout. I think the staff member who said it didn't had it confused with the sensor elite.

GT Sensor expert   Mystery solved. I just received my gt sensor expert today (yeah) and it has lockout on both shocks. What an awesome bike. FYI I am 5 11" 32 inseam and the large is perfect with the seat all the way down. If my legs were any shorter I would need a medium. The order went perfect, the genius build awesome. This bike looks like a 4000 bike all day long, the Internet does not do it justice. I am not sure how giantnerd pulled this deal off, but I am very happy they did.

GT Sensor expert   This answer makes no sense Jeff. I just googled the fox float Rl and according to their wepage this shock has lockout. Wut? Juan the two bikes are the same with the expert having upgraded component. The expert is better but costs mor.

Love my sensor expert

It has been about three weeks since I received my sensor expert. First, the fit and finish are fantastic, the pics do not do it justice. The bike pops. Also, it literally took me 5 minutes to roll it out the door for a test, and it came 4 days early. Point for genus build and nerd shipping. Initially the bike felt large and I put the seat all the way down. It is now back up, I am 5' 11" and the large frame is perfect. It is a big burly bike that rolls over everything in its path with impunity, and it soaks up bumps, ruts, whatever is in your path. Next, I had no idea how awesome the suspension would be, and how this would change my speed and confidence on the trail. Additionally, I had no clue just how awesome suspension lockout is. My home trail is one my from my house, and this bike converts to a street bike with the flip of (2) switches. The sLx gear set blows away my buddies deore set, and the double crank up front is way cooler than my old triple. Speaking of my buddy, I used struggle to keep up with him, and now the situation is reversed. The 29er is. Great equalizer. My only issue was a pinch flat on the front. My bike shop said it was due to no tape on the front tire, but instead a non adhesive wrap that moved. They admonished me to bring in the rear, which i didn't and it is now not holding air. I am out. 2 tubes and tape, about 35 bucks at my shop. Nothing mind blowing, but if giantnerd wants to help a brother out then thanks in advance. All in all, i friggen love this bike. It has inspired me to ride more and ride better. Giantnerd, I don't know how you put this deal together because I see what the competition is selling it for, but I sure am glad you did. There are a finite number of these 2012 bikes left. Don't contemplate yourself out of an awesome deal if you are on the fence. This is a crazy, unreal bargain. Thanks guys.
