Five World Cup victories, an overall World Cup win and the prestigious ride without a chain in Leogang, yet the American is leaving Specialized. Aaron Gwin felt he was treated beneath his worth and is now looking for a new challenge. However, he is said to have already found this at YT Industries, but nothing has been officially confirmed yet. Gwin's successor at Specialized is to be world champion Loic Bruni, the Frenchman is still without a contract after the dissolution of Lappiere's Gravity Team. However, various pictures that the world champion has published on social media do not yet give a one hundred percent indication of the new bike supplier. Loic Bruni had also been linked to the Santa Cruz Syndicate Team and Canyon, among others, and Canyon was allegedly planning to form its own downhill team around the world champion.
