Got No rezzies for now, but after reading there website it says I can get a kit to convert to remote rezzies down the Road. Remember ATP is an authorized ELKA dealer ;)

I couldn't afford the Elkas so I went with the Custom Axis.
Although I think ATP overcharged me for them ;D J/K

Elka has Dual, Triple and some Quad rate shocks. Triple cost more than dual, but they absorb more. PM me your weight and riding style and I can get you a price if your are interested. Elka usually has a Two week lead time. Personally, I have Elka triple rates no rezzies. I LOVE THEM!!!

I have rode a quad with both elka tripple rate and works that I have on mine I think the main thing with the elkas are there marketing they get the word out much better, but works have been around for ever and worked for the pros back in the day and are still selling plenty of shocks I love mine and think that I am very glad that I didnt spend the extra money just for a name and I also think that it does not matter what you have none of them are invinseble and you can not always land perfect every time, if you land hard tottally wrong just once you could break something!  but no matter what you decide on you should defantally make sure that you at least get tripple rate or better!!
