Bottom Line:
Light!!! I can't say it enough. You won't need lockout if you set it right, so it can sit under 3 lbs no problem. If you want it, PushLoc is the way to go. Machine your brake lever or shifter to accept it, and the perch will mount to nearly anything. Not a lot of cable, and a really easy lever to reach, no matter where you put it. Well designed fork all around, with nothing in excess. Not a DH fork, obviously, but it doesn't stutter on washboards, or bottom out on bad landings. Kinda expensive, but under 3 lbs?! It is gonna cost. I would love to send it to Push, might make it ride like the $1K fork it was designed to be. Not that there are flaws, just that delicate subtlety of added confidence that this fork does not come with, which Push seems to know how to add.
