Cane Creek Launches the Helm Fork

Edited Date/Time 4/11/2017 1:26pm
Cane Creek have been busy working on a new fork! It features what appears to be a clever negative air chamber equalizer button which may turn out to be a great addition, especially for people who ride at different altitudes or who otherwise find themselves tinkering with air spring pressure.



Setting sag:


"D-LOC" Quick release axle:


There's also what looks like a clever way to adjust the air spring volume (instead of using tokens, the Helm uses a piston that can be moved to achieve the same effect):
