Description
Taking Excellence to Another Level!
With the HELM MKII we re-examined every aspect of the fork’s internal design. From new SKF wiper seals, to lighter weight damper fluid, to a redesigned air spring - we tweaked and tuned and improved the HELM, all in the name of reducing friction as the fork moves through its travel. The result is the smoothest and most supple fork Cane Creek has ever made, all while providing the same incredible support and stability of the original HELM.
Helm MKII Highlights:
Redesigned Air Spring - New friction reducing air piston material and a threadless air seal head for ease of maintenance
SKF Wiper Seals - Reduced friction over previous seals
Updated Damper - Lighter compression tune to increase sensitivity, 2.5wt Motorex damper oil with 11% lighter viscosity and new SKF oil seal head to reduce friction.
