The Helm MKII is our first major revision of the Helm fork lineup and improves on its predecessor in nearly every way.
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 2.5 weight damper oil reduce friction and provide a more supple ride-feel.
All Helm MKII forks are built to order by hand in our facility in North Carolina, USA. Helm MKII Coil 27.5’s will ship within 5-7 business days
All 29″ fork returns are subject to a 20% restocking fee.
All 27.5″ forks are final sale.
Limited Edition: Check out our full collection of these highly sought-after Helm forks.

Verified OwnerThe helm coil fork is one of the best purchases I have made. Very little weight difference and quiet. Very easy to set up. I will run these from now on

Verified OwnerCame from a Fox 36 Fit4 Factory, and the Helm coil is in a completely different and buttery universe. Personally not noticing the weight difference, and as stiff as I need for any Bay Area trail I'm hitting . Any perceptible loss in efficiency while mashing uphill all goes away when using momentum on the trail or when heading down. Stoked.
