History

[edit]

2006

[edit]

In the Syndicate's inaugural year, Steve Peat delivered, winning the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup.

2008

[edit]

2008 was Greg Minnaar's first year with the Syndicate, and he made his mark immediately, winning the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, beating out Sam Hill and Gee Atherton. 2008 was also Josh Bryceland's first year with the Syndicate, and he won the UCI Junior Downhill World Championships.

2009

[edit]

2009 was Steve Peat's year, as he won the UCI World Championships, after finishing 2nd four times before. Greg Minnaar finished in second place, which made the Syndicate the best-ranked UCI Downhill team, seconded by Madcatz Factory Team.

2010

[edit]

2010 saw Minnaar finishing second in the downhill UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, and third in the UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships.

2014

[edit]

2014 was the year for Josh Bryceland. "Ratboy" won two World Cup races, and also won the overall DH UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, along with being the British DH National Champion.

2017

[edit]

In his first season riding a 29-inch-wheeled bike, Greg Minnaar was within striking distance of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup overall title until a disqualification in Mont Sainte-Anne and a mechanical in the final round in Val di Sole dropped him to third place; Loris Vergier joined him in the top five overall with a fifth-place finish.
