Best would be to reset it with the result of subtracting a dirac delta
from a constant signal of 1 (which should give a one-sample 0).

Attached is a [dirac-delta~] abstraction -- it could be far more
efficient for your purposes, but it's meant to work more or less like
the [dirac~] object from zexy so it has a couple of extra goodies you
probably don't need.

I forgot what the [bang~] is supposed to do -- was it to reset the
[max~] every block?  In that case a tentative solution would be to set
a phasor to run at exactly the frequency corresponding to the period
of a block size, and divide it by itself.  If the phase remains zero
and you feed it nothing but powers of two, it should produce a 0 once
per cycle (and thus once per block).  There are more robust solutions,
but this might work in a pinch.
