The damper boasts a new compression and mid-valve circuit for improved support, and revised internals to further reduce friction and improve small bump compliance. The HELM MKII comes with SKF wiper seals as standard, normally only found as an aftermarket option when coupled with coil performance these provide the best low-friction experience and further optimise the fork for absolute suppleness and performance.
