Difference between SID World Cup & SID XX World Cup

What is the difference between these 2 forks in layman terms, i think the XX comes standard with remote lock out though it looks like the World cup can be optioned with the remote lockout... does this mean the damper is different, but how different? Is there anything else that differentiates them? what is the preferred fork of these 2?
thanks

Lock outs are different. WC uses a traditional cable actuated L/O while the XX uses a hydro L/O. Off the top I've my head I think the XX is a tad lighter, not by much though. Horses for courses really, personally I wouldn't care either way.

SID XX & World Cup

Yeah both the SID World Cup and SID XX World Cup forks are technically the same apart from the compression dampers and graphics. I've got this feeling that the PushLock damper will actually be, or has already been, phased out in favour of the XLoc damper. If a fork lockout is your thing, it's certainly a trick piece of kit!

Funnily enough

I have the current Sid XX on my dually and the World Cup on the hardtail. The WC is slightly lighter but I fitted a hydraulic lockout to it so they're roughly the same. For some reason the XX feels plusher. Maybe being on a dually, I don't know.

I've got the Reba xx with the XLoc, after a crash with a tree the xLoc tube was broken, the system uses positive pressure to activate the fork. I was left to ride the remainder of the track with a fully locked fork. If i had the option again i would go for the cable driver lock. It was also a $250 repair to replace the xLoc, fluid, and bleed. Where the cable would have just been a quick fix.
