Press Release

Andreas Kolb Joins The YT Mob 2

YT making moves to continue building top-level World Cup DH team.

January 7, 2025 – It's official. The rumors are true. Off the back of a dominant season, the YT MOB welcomes one of the fastest names in Downhill to its ranks – Andreas Kolb. With two European Downhill Championships and a World Cup to his name, Andi joins the MOB alongside Vali Höll, Oisin O’Callaghan, and Kasper Woolley.

With Kolb, the MOB takes a step closer to its vision of becoming one of the top teams on the circuit. While the squad has shared individual success, these changes place them in a position to climb higher and top the team rankings, something the MOB hasn't yet achieved.

“The move to the MOB was a no-brainer! The team already feels like family, and I'm completely aligned with the bike and brand. I’m already excited for what we can achieve together, but winning a second World Cup with the new team would be a dream for 2025.” - Andi Kolb, MOB Downhill Athlete

As a new, ten-round World Cup season approaches, these changes mark YT's commitment to downhill. Testing is well underway, with the team taking to a training camp in South Africa to push performance and dial in their race-day settings, cementing the MOB as one to watch for the season ahead.
