Looking to move from rigid to suspension on the Monkey. Don't necessarily want to spend big bucks so I'm looking more at Marzzocchi and Manitou. Needs to be quick release and 1 1/8" steerer tube. I'm a bit of lumbering buffalo (read 215ish) and it needs a lockout as my Monkey is a single speed. Any thoughts on the above brands would be nice. Thank you.

Look for a Rock Shox Recon Gold TK. Air sprung, and identical to a Reba in the feel dept. for half the cost.
