Possibly. What do you think I could sell a mint set of Helm MkII Coil for, if I hate them?
Conversely, I have a set of Helm Mk1 Air that are unused since a full service (SKF wiper seals and so on) from Full Factory Suspension - some marks to the decals from undergrowth but overall in very good condition. What do you think the going rate for these would be?
Dammit-
What do you think the going rate for these would be?
Not at all sure really. I have a terrible habit of under pricing everything
The Helms are the most coil-like air fork I've tried. I can only imagine what the coil ones are like. I suppose it comes down to if you think you're missing out on something and can find the correct weight spring. I think the Ohlins springs might be compatible and they have a greater range of weights available than Cane Creek
I'd probably get the coil one myself, only I don't require any more than 120mm travel max on my current bike and the coil are 130mm minimum
New bike time for me, I guess

I’ll check what I sold my Helm mk1 air fork for on eBay. From memory I think it was about £300ish
I finally got round to fitting the smashpot coil to my Lyrik recently. Only had a couple proper rides on it so far so still not formed a full opinion yet.
But I’d say that the overall difference from the air spring isn’t really as night and day as I thought it would be.
I crashed and fucked my shoulder last time at inners, so it will probably be a couple weeks before I can get more miles on it.
