Cane Creek HELM MKII Coil - 29" - 44mm OS

The Cane Creek HELM MKII Coil is the second generation of Cane Creek’s acclaimed HELM fork, now featuring refinements that elevate its performance to new heights. Building on the original HELM Coil’s class-leading design, the MKII model incorporates updates that improve small-bump sensitivity, overall control, and durability.

The HELM MKII Coil features a new compression and mid-valve circuit for increased support and control, alongside revised internals that further reduce friction and enhance small-bump compliance. Equipped with SKF low-friction wiper seals and an oil seal head cartridge, the fork ensures exceptional smoothness, giving riders confidence on demanding trails.

Features:

• Updated Compression and Mid-Valve Circuit: Provides enhanced support and improved control across all terrains.

• SKF Low-Friction Oil Seal Head Cartridge: Reduces friction for a smoother ride and longer service intervals.

• High-Performance Motorex Damper Oil: Ensures consistent damping performance even under demanding conditions.

• SKF Low-Friction Wiper Seals: Factory-installed to enhance small-bump compliance and overall fork performance.

• 35mm Stanchions: Deliver excellent stiffness and steering precision.

• Travel Adjustability: Internally adjustable from 130mm to 160mm in 10mm increments.

Adjustments:

• External High-Speed Compression Adjust

• External Low-Speed Compression Adjust

• External Low-Speed Rebound Adjust

• Independent Positive and Negative Air Spring Rate/Pressure (note: air spring preload assists fine-tuning, though the main spring is coil)

Spring Rate Options:

• 35lb Spring – RED (40-55kg rider)

• 45lb Spring – BLACK (55-73kg rider)

• 55lb Spring – GREEN (73-90kg rider) — Stock Spring

Installation Notes:
Professional installation recommended. Requires correct steerer tube cutting, crown race pressing, and suspension setup for optimal performance and safety.

Dispatch and Delivery Timeframes

All items are dispatched once full payment has been received and confirmed. Same-day dispatch is available for orders or completed service jobs paid before 1:00 pm AEST. Any payments received after this cut-off will result in next business day dispatch.

Expected delivery time for most Australian addresses is 1 to 3 business days. Delivery time may vary depending on the customer’s location and other external factors outside NSDynamics’ control. Typical delivery timeframes around Australia are:

• WA: 2-5 working days

• NT: 2-5 working days

Tracking and Notifications

All outgoing parcels are tracked. Tracking details will be provided once the item has been dispatched. NSDynamics does not send arrival notifications for inbound service items unless the parcel is damaged in transit or missing important components required for service.

Customers are encouraged to use tracked and insured freight when sending items to NSDynamics. Responsibility for the parcel remains with the sender until the item is received and checked in at the NSDynamics workshop.

Shipping Fees

Return express postage back to the customer is included free of charge for all full Factory and Hyperformance service types. It does not apply to minor repairs or basic services. Shipping charges for parts or accessories are calculated during checkout.

Postage to NSDynamics is the responsibility of the customer unless otherwise arranged. Warranty items may qualify for return postage coverage only if they were originally supplied by NSDynamics and a clear fault is confirmed.

Shipping Insurance

All parcels sent from NSDynamics are covered under NSDynamics’ freight insurance. In the unlikely event that an item is lost or damaged during return transit, it will be replaced with a comparable item where possible. If a parcel arrives damaged, photo evidence must be supplied immediately. NSDynamics is not responsible for parcels where the receiver has chosen the 'Authority To Leave' option. 

Packaging Requirements

Customers must ensure that their suspension is packaged securely and appropriately for shipping. If an item arrives in packaging that is damaged or unsuitable for safe return, NSDynamics may use a heavy-duty branded box and apply a $5 fee to the final invoice. This ensures your suspension is protected during return freight. Customers are encouraged to retain and reuse this box for future service bookings.

Transit Times and Delays

While NSDynamics uses express freight to minimise delivery delays, transit times cannot be guaranteed. NSDynamics is not responsible for delays caused by freight carriers, public holidays, weather events, or other external disruptions. If a parcel has been delayed more than 5 business days beyond its expected delivery date, customers are welcome to contact NSDynamics for support.

Public Holidays

Unfortunately our workshop is closed on all nationwide and Queensland-specific public holidays, so we are not able to ship sales or service orders on these days. Any services or sales orders placed on public holidays will be processed and dispatched the following business day.

New Zealand and International Shipping

NSDynamics offers international shipping to New Zealand via Australia Post. Standard delivery times range from 5 to 10 business days. Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery details and ensuring someone is available to receive the parcel.

Goods sent to New Zealand may be subject to import duties and GST. NSDynamics does not collect or cover any customs charges. It is the customer’s responsibility to be aware of local import requirements and costs. Orders returned, delayed, or destroyed due to unpaid duties or taxes are not the responsibility of NSDynamics.

In the event that a product needs to be returned from New Zealand, including for warranty inspection, all return postage costs are the responsibility of the customer. NSDynamics does not cover international return freight for items not originally purchased from NSDynamics.

International orders are processed in New Zealand Dollars (NZD), and prices do not include Australian GST. Currency conversions may vary depending on the payment platform used at checkout.
