International focus, competitive strength, and ambition

The 2026 season marks a real turning point in the history of the BH Coloma team. With a newly formed, clearly internationally oriented lineup, the team aims to be competitive at the highest level in the UCI MTB World Series.

The elite team includes Jofre Cullell, French overall winner Olivia Onesti, in her first season in the elite category, Hugo Franco (U23), as well as new additions Ulan Galinski, Chilean national champion Catalina Vidaurre, and Chiara Teocchi. They bring a balanced mix of experience, youth, and international perspective to the project.

This combination of talent, diversity, and ambition reflects the team's natural evolution toward a more global, performance-oriented model with a clear focus on Olympic goals.

Focus on LA28

With Los Angeles 2028 firmly in its sights, the BH Coloma Team is entering this new phase with a long-term, clearly structured plan that focuses on peak performance, innovation, and sustainable talent development.

"We are entering a new era for the BH Coloma Team, with a stronger, more international structure and a clear vision towards Los Angeles 2028. It's not just about short-term success, but about building a solid, sustainable and long-term competitive project that promotes talent and can compete at the highest level in the World Cup."

"Our squad combines experience and youth in an ideal balance: riders who know what it means to ride at the top and others with great development potential. It is precisely this mix that is crucial for approaching this Olympic cycle with ambition and consistency," says Carlos Coloma, CEO and team manager of the BH Coloma Team.

Technology, identity, and performance: the bikes of the BH Coloma Team

During the presentation, the team also unveiled the new BH Lynx SLS and BH Lynx Race models, which it will be racing with in the 2026 season. This year, BH is placing a clear focus on identity and visual consistency.

For the first time, the team is presenting a consistent design concept: all bikes follow a common aesthetic line and are fully coordinated with the new official jersey, which was developed in collaboration with Kalas, the team's new clothing partner. This design will also be available to the public via the BH Unique customization platform.

This is a conscious strategic decision that strengthens the team's image, increases brand presence, and further sharpens recognition in the international paddock.

"In this new phase, we also wanted to take a step forward in terms of image. A uniform team design, where the bike and jersey speak the same language, strengthens our identity and makes it clear what we stand for and where we want to go," explains Álvaro Olasolo, communications manager at BH Bikes.

In 2026, the BH Coloma Team can once again rely on a strong network of sponsors and technical partners who guarantee top-quality equipment, innovation, and maximum reliability. The setup includes EKOI glasses and helmets, Duke wheels, Shimano components—including pedals, gears, and brake discs— X-Sauce products for care and maintenance, Maxxis tires, Fox suspension and seat posts, Gemini handlebars, and Prologo saddles, gloves, and grips. A high-performance package designed to meet the demands of the World Cup.

JRG Norclamp Coloma Academy: the foundation for the future

One of the cornerstones of this new era is the expansion of the JRG Norclamp Coloma Academy junior team, which will enter a new phase in 2026 together with the OTXE club and establish itself as the official development structure within the BH Coloma team.

The Academy stands for a clear commitment to promoting young talent, combining popular and competitive sports and offering a realistic development path towards a professional team, in line with the global vision of the Coloma Academy. The JRG Norclamp Coloma Academy is a central building block for the future of the team and for our commitment to the region and to future generations," explains team boss Coloma.

A project with regional roots and an international perspective

The presentation once again emphasized that the BH Coloma Team is much more than just a competitive team: it is a sporting, social, and regional project that combines youth development, elite sport, and the region, and is continuously growing internationally from La Rioja.

With a clear identity, stable structure, and new ambition, the BH Coloma Team is starting the 2026 season ready to take on the challenges of the international racing calendar and move step by step closer to the Olympic dream of Los Angeles 2028.
