Volume + Resist 2023 Line Available Now!

This might be old news to some of you, but I wanted to wait till I got some c r i s p y pictures of all the new products. The 2023 Volume + Resist line is HERE. A lot of us have been dreaming for this day to come and I actually still can’t believe it’s here.

Available on this first (and certainly not the last) drop are Thrasher frames, Cutter frames, Resist pivotal saddles, seatposts, seatclamps, and tires. The purple Thrasher and white Cutter are available at any of your local bike shops who carry Volume products while the gold Cutter and pink Thrasher are exclusively available on the Volume / Resist website. Only 15 of each size were made in the website exclusive colors.

These dudes were nice enough to shoot me a Thrasher frame so look out for my build with that soon. In the meantime you can grab some items from this drop on the Resist website HERE

VOLUME 2023 FRAMES

This is WILD. Volume Bikes making Fixed Gears… in 2023! While Epic already broke the news, here’s an exclusive high res look at the frames that Volume will be dropping in a couple weeks. They’ll be re-releasing the Cutter and the Thrasher. Essentially a V7 Cutter and a V3 Thrasher. I think they’re just testing the waters a bit with the market, so it looks like they’re just dropping these colorways for now in limited quantities. I’m digging that purple a lot.

From what I’ve heard, the Cutter is looking to fit 45c tires just like the V6, but with unchanged track style geometry. So that’s pretty cool news. This isn’t all that Volume and Resist are cooking up, so keep your head on a swivel for more info.

Also look out for a chance to win one of these frames as a raffle prize for our upcoming Suck My Comp 6 competition!

Baek Horang Love talkin’ Edit

Been saying this for a while now, but Baek Horang is the TRUTH. He easily resembles the closest thing we have to a modern day Keo Curry in terms of trick choice and smoothness, but he definitely has his own flair to it. I could watch him ride all day and there’s some really good tricks in here. Love the high speed stuff, love the Keo rocks, so good. Satoshi killed it with the filming and edit as always too. Great week for content, watch this!!

Correction is a Crime – Jakub Bruch

WOW. Huge week for European Fixed Gear riding and FGFS as a whole! Not only did we get Ismael’s edit, but the current #1 ranked Trick Track rider in the world Jakub Bruch has blessed us with a very stacked, very impressive edit on his Volume Cutter. I’ve been keeping up with the progression on this video, so I’m aware that a lot of this is old footage and Jakub says it’s “outdated”, but that’s dumb. Jakub’s “old” riding is still top caliber and he pulls some insane tricks in here, especially for being a huge 700c Cutter with skinny tires. I’m loving the camera work and edit on this too, high quality stuff. DO NOT MISS THIS.

84 Early 2023 Recap

It’s no secret that Satoshi puts in work. Not only does he seemingly release an IG clip every day, but he’s out here making full edits! He’s got one of my favorite styles and really encapsulates that old school creative Keo Curry vibe. He’s been on that Cutter forever but he just got a Courttek, so I’m excited to see what he does on it.

New Bike Day: Deacon’s Cutter V5

Although the frame came out in 2010, Deacon managed to find a BRAND NEW Volume Cutter V5 in the wild and snagged it for himself. He decided to celebrate this monumental fixie achievement by building it up with 100% brand new parts and let me say, the result is absolutely beautiful. Look out for some content of Deacon riding this bad boy soon and click read more to see the whole gallery!
