Resist was quick off the jump to post the pictures of my new signature 700c fork to the point where I wasn’t even able to take any pictures of my own! So here are my official promo pics for the fork, available now at Resistbikes.com! (Promo video coming soon?)
Resist has been dropping some serious goodies on us the last couple weeks! I’ve already posted about the 2 forks they just released, but now there are also new cranks and a new Latte colored Icon saddle available now! Here’s what Resist had to say about the cranks:
Specs:
“Our Resist cranks have heat-treated tubular chromoly arms that include a forged spindle boss. Made with a 48 spline, 19 mm hollow chromoly spindle and flush mount spindle bolts that is flush with the arm to reduce ankle scarring.”
Includes a manufacturer’s Lifetime Warranty against cracks & breaks.
Both of these good looking items available here!
Cats out of the bag! My Resist JAB 700c fork is out now. These utensils have been in the works for months now and I’m really happy with the way they turned out. I love colliding worlds, so my man Gus Molina helped out with the sweet boxing Cleto Reyes inspired decals. Chrome polish of course because chrome is king. Resist brake hole is the cherry on top. At 420 A2C and a long steer tube, these are perfect for either 700c FGFS bikes or to throw on your existing track bike to do some sweet barspins.
These are now available at the Resist webstore and bike shops that distribute Volume and Resist goods for $189. Here are the dirty details on the specs:
Another piece of news Resist announced to my surprise was a 26″ fork! This one featured a threaded top cap, short A2C at 391mm, and a butted steerer tube. BEEFY. Here are the specs:
Both forks are available now on the Resist webstore!
The prototype Volume stem I’ve been rocking is now available! Really unique design on this that I’ve been loving. No slippage and no problems either. Here are the details from Volume:
“New for 2024 the Velocity Top Load Stem.
6061 CNC stem that features extensive external & internal CNC cuts to reduce weight, a wider 44 mm clamping area, chamfered and rounded edges plus a ø32 mm recessed compression bolt cutout.
The stem also features an aero dynamic forward “V” shape with external machining on the sides to go with the flow.”
Grab one here!
Starting off the new year with some big news, I am officially part of the Resist Bikes 2024 team! We have some exciting things in the pipeline, but for now just check out my welcome interview with them here. Big thanks to Resist for the support, I’m honored to be the first on the team!
Look out this week for a full bike check of my current Ruff build on here.
Something I didn’t expect to see in 2023… a Resist resurgence?! If you don’t know, Resist was the leading FGFS parts company from 2010-2013 owned by Volume Bike Co. 10 years later, it looks like they’re making a resurgence. Maybe my email from September telling them to bring Resist back actually made them think about it 😳. Either way… this is crazy. I wonder if this is a one off tribute to their dead parts company or there are plans to bring back more, we’ll reach out for further comment. For now though, snag a pair of brand new Resist Cranks here. Here’s what Volume says about em:
“The new Limited Edition Resist Cranks: We added a new heat treatment process, thicker tubing and made them with a stiffer shape.
All for those that need the security of a stress-free crank.
Heat-treated tubular chromoly arms with a forged spindle boss that is flush with the arm to reduce ankle scarring, 48 spline, 19 mm hollow chromoly spindle and flush mount spindle bolts. RHD/LHD compatible. And, they come with a manufacturer’s Lifetime Warranty against cracks & breaks.
One of my favorite edits of all time. 700c goodness.
I’ve watched these way too many times, and I still enjoy it. And I also love watching Joe on that Unknown frame a bit too much. Steez for days.
Matt gets better and better with every bit he posts. So creative, so fresh, so fluid. Wa†ch this. Now. Love this style of FGFS.
