Aaron Gwin's Hunt For Gold

Join the American racer’s quest for his elusive first UCI World Championship medal.

When Aaron Gwin hangs up his racing shoes (many, many years from now), 2016 will still stand out as an important season among an already glittering career.

At the end of 2015, he walked away from the Specialized team with whom he'd wrapped up his third UCI World Cup overall title and the internet went into meltdown. Cyberspace had just about recomposed itself when he announced that he'd be riding a YT Industries bike made up of a smorgasbord of components on a team as yet to be finalised.

For many racers, this would all have been a leap too far. But not for Gwin.
