CANE CREEK HELM MKII AIR FORK
Description
The Cane Creek Helm MK II Air Fork is a revision of Cane Creek’s Helm fork lineup and improves on its predecessor in nearly every way. It features a new compression and mid-valve circuit for increased support and control while a new SKF oil seal head and 2.5 weight damper oil reduce friction and provide a more supple ride-feel. The Helm MKII redesigned air spring has a new air piston designed to reduce friction, an increased air volume for better traction and suppleness, and a threadless seal head for easier travel change. In addition to the updated damper and air spring, the HELM MKII features a variety of external usability improvements including easier to turn knobs and a D-LOC bolt-on axle.
