Why We Like The Helm MK II 29in Boost Coil Fork
Huckin, jumpin, and getting dirty every day is why we ride with the Cane Creek Helm MK 29in Boost Coil Fork. The big hit trail and enduro fork uses every bit of Cane Creek's knowledge in manufacturing prowess to create a suspension platform good enough for the race day and every day. Cane Creek utilizes a supple coal damper with preload adjustment for fine-tuning ride style along with a number of other adjustments found on performance forks.

Much better than fox or rockshox
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Upgraded from a Fox38. Big improvement. The fork is plusher while still feeling solid and supportive. Front end feels lighter and has a lot more feel. Handling is sharper. Setup took like 30 seconds. Also swapped my fox float x for a db kitsuma. Same deal. The only bad part about this fork is that now I feel like throwing all of my fox 38 and rockshox zeb in the trash.
