Specialized announced the signing of Aaron Gwin to the 2013 Specialized DH program. Aaron will be supported with frames and tires. He will be joining teammates Troy Brosnan and Mitch Ropelato. Aaron leaves the Trek World Racing Team where he set the record for the most World Cup Downhill victories in a single season and won two World Cup Downhill Series.

“I'm super excited to start this new chapter in my career with Specialized bicycles," said Aaron. "The entire Specialized staff has welcomed me with open arms and I'm blown away by the level of support they've shown me. This is my dream program and I can't thank them enough for this opportunity. Bring on 2013!”
