We couldn’t resist the opportunity to bring Helm into the Chroma Studio! 

The Chroma Studio treatment highlights the build quality of Helm by pointing out each of its five, precisely machined external components (including the brake line keeper). With a color-matched lower leg sticker kit on the standard gloss black finish, these forks add a lot of personality to a build while still remaining tasteful. You can now purchase a Helm in FIVE total color configurations. Select Helm with blue, red, gold, or silver accents – or stick with the standard all-black stealth look if that’s your thing.

  • Easily adjustable from 120mm – 160mm travel with included parts. Sold in 140, 150, and 160mm configurations.
  • Five anodized external components, with a color-matched lower leg sticker kit: representing over $100 value!  
  • Anodized parts may display slight color variation, as natural result of manufacturing 

All 29″ fork returns are subject to a 20% restocking fee.

Limited Edition: Check out our full collection of these highly sought-after Helm forks.

"Mixing incredible levels of control, impressive levels of small-bump sensitivity and bucket loads of adjustability leaves the door wide open when searching for that ultimate set up."

    Nice fork, but don’t care for neg chamber filling process. Not sure if or how much air is transferring to the neg side when pressing the valve. Would rather have another shreader valve to fill the chamber.

5/5

Helm MKII was purchased to pair up with the Cane Creek AIR IL that I have on my REEB SST.
I purchased the 150mm but I’ve also ridden the 140mm version. This shock is the best riding shock I’ve ridden, it has a great small bump damping effect but can handle the big drops and jumps with ease.
Definitely take time out to learn about how to set up this fork, it functions differently than other forks.
My only criticism is the price point and only because I feel many other riders would choose this shock if the price comparison was better when weighing it against FOX or DVO.
Even with the price I’d recommend this fork without hesitation.
