10/5/2021 6:50am from forbes: The cleverness comes at a cost: FlightAttendant-equipped bikes will initially cost $11,000+. FlightAttendant-equipped bikes probably won’t be available to buy for some months, but RockShox will unveil the system on Tuesday.

There were rumblings top brands only sell hundreds (as in less than 1000) DH bikes a year. So it's pretty obvious why the big ones went aluminium only in a carbon first MTB world.
