Teams and riders

Ridley’s heritage in cyclocross and off-road racing stretches back decades, with over 20 titles to our name since the beginning of this millennium. In 2024, we launched a new era with the creation of the Ridley Racing Team, our very first independently managed cyclocross team. In addition to cyclocross, the team also competes in the world’s most prestigious gravel races, building on Ridley’s successful history.

In 2025, we returned to the professional peloton as the official bike partner of the Norwegian cycling team Uno-X Mobility, which has both men’s and women’s teams at the highest level. Together with Uno-X Mobility, we share the same values: the constant pursuit of innovation and an unconditional love for racing. A 10-year partnership underlines both parties’ ambitions for the future. In 2026, the men’s team will join the WorldTour—the level at which the women are already competing. And this is just the beginning...

Since the founding of Pauwels Sauzen - Altez Industriebouw in 2007, Ridley has been the bike supplier for the cyclocross team. In this way, Ridley underlines its role as a 'leading brand' in cyclocross. No fewer than 20 cyclocross world champions have ridden a Ridley, and with Michael Vanthourenhout and Eli Iserbyt, the titles have continued to flow in recent years.

The partnership between Ridley and KMC MTB Racing Team started in 2023 and marks an exciting new chapter for the both of us. KMC MTB Racing Team’s main goal is to compete in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. With our support, the team will have access to the best equipment available, allowing their riders to perform their best on the international stage. Our Probe RS and Raft RS mountainbikes are designed to exceed on every international race level.

Alongside teams at the highest level, Ridley also collaborates with several smaller squads through our local dealers. Continental team Illes Balears Arabay and Cyclis–Van den Plas Cycling Team, featuring riders like Tom Meeusen and Wout Janssen, both race on our bikes. The French multi-winner Noemié Garnier also rides Ridley. Moreover, we support various youth teams such as Starbikes–Vistabuild and Acrog Tormans, as we aim to back riders at every level and in all age categories.

At Ridley, we are inspired by athletes who give their best every day and show us what it means to ride a bike no matter the terrain. From gravel to triathlon to road, our ambassadors embody the best aspects of cycling and are an important part of the Ridley family. Our ambassadors are carefully selected for their passion, dedication and skills on the bike. Through their achievements and successes, they inspire us to keep improving and innovating our bikes. We are proud to partner with these athletes and support them in their pursuit of excellence in their sport and in life.
