Cane Creek Helm MKII 27.5 Coil Fork
Helm MKII COIL 27.5
The Helm MKII is our first major revision of the Helm fork lineup and improves upon its predecessor in nearly every way.
The HELM MKII Coil includes all the innovative features of the original HELM Coil fork including rider-adjustable travel which allows HELM MKII owners to change the travel of their fork at home with just a few common tools.
The Helm MKII includes a newly designed damper featuring a new compression and mid-valve circuit for increased support and control while a new SKF Oil Seal Head and the 2.5 weight damper oil reduces friction and provides a more supple ride-feel.
