Uno-X Mobility secures two key riders for 2027 - Scandinavian team renew deals for experienced riders
Cycling
Uno-X Mobility continues to shape its roster for the 2027 season with the renewal of two riders whose contracts were expiring. The Scandinavian team has confirmed the extensions of Markus Hoelgaard and William Blume Levy, two different profiles who will remain part of the Norwegian structure next season.
Hoelgaard, 31, has signed a two-year extension and will stay with Uno-X Mobility through the end of 2028. The Norwegian had already defended the team’s colours between 2019 and 2021, before starting a new spell at Trek-Segafredo.
His return to the Scandinavian set-up came in 2024, a standout season in his career. That year he claimed the Norwegian road title and added two more wins to his palmarès: a stage at the Tour de Wallonie and the GP Jef Scherens-Rondom Leuven.
For his part, William Blume Levy has agreed to continue for one more season. The 25-year-old Dane has been with Uno-X Mobility since turning professional in 2022 and will remain tied to the Norwegian squad through 2027.
Nordics lock in two key pieces for 2027
Although he has yet to take his first professional win, Blume Levy has established himself in his early seasons as a team rider. The Dane has mainly worked as a domestique and has been particularly active in the northern European classics, where his work for the leaders has been one of his main contributions.
His renewal thus reflects a different, but equally important, profile within the structure. While the Norwegian brings experience and the ability to chase individual results, Blume Levy will continue to play a support role for Uno-X Mobility’s key riders.
With these two extensions, the Norwegian team now has 29 riders confirmed for the 2027 season. The roster is therefore almost complete, though one spot remains open to round out the squad.

Final place in team
That final place could go to one of the riders still sorting out their future or, alternatively, to a new signing from the market. Uno-X Mobility thus keeps one last door open to finalise its project for next season.
Hoelgaard’s continuity through 2028 also signals a medium-term bet on one of the team’s experienced riders. In Blume Levy’s case, the one-year deal allows the Dane to keep developing within a structure where he has already built several seasons of experience.
With both moves, Uno-X Mobility continues to advance the build of a team that will have its 2027 block largely defined, pending only who will take the final available spot.

- I never watched cycling back when LA was riding, but from what I’ve heard LA was a nasty piece of work in the Peloton, so nothing would surprise me! 😆Lozza01-10-2026
- Wout had a great year, finally getting a cobble, plus green jersey and 2 stages at Vuelta and fantastic team work for Brennan, plus other nice wins, but all the Belgian press (and others) can see now is what happened at Worlds. Give the guy a break!Lozza01-10-2026
- But even then he carried on working after getting his breath back. Pidcock probably p’d off that it was del Toro who rode down his late attack with Ciccone.Lozza01-10-2026
- Del Toro did a LOT of work riding on the front pulling that group along, with Seixas sat on his wheel. By the time McNulty went he can’t have had much left.Lozza01-10-2026
- Big Pog fan but Mcnulty will not honour the jersey by carrying water bottles. For the older members 1990 Rudy Daelens won the jersey in Japan and never won anything and was a domestic for his team. Pidcock makes a good point about pro teams and working for team mates instead of country.Pidcock knows what he talking about multi world champion and classics winner.paultryan200201-10-2026
- So Pidcock has to wait another year to try to become the 1st Englishman to win Elite World Road Race since Tommy Simpson in 1965 !!!!!!!!!
Senna196001-10-2026 - Angry Pidcock and Matthews claim del Toro helped UAE teammate McNulty claim gold bla bla bla bla bla bla bla ... etc. etc. etc. etc.... The Rainbow Jersey will stay close to Pogi... he won't wear it but McNulty will, but still close. Next year it will be on Pogi's back again. UAE are the "sole owners" of the Rainbow Jersey. Ad acta!!!PogiSloFans01-10-2026
- Shocking really. That any team, never mind an American one, would have that degree of selflessness in their squad. Both Matteo or Quinn would have been equally deserving as champions. And maybe the original plan was teeing it up for them.MavicMoto01-10-2026
- Perhaps Piddy knew Onley didn’t have it but outside of messages getting passed along from the sides of the road, I’m not sure how he would know that without radios. And yes…Quinn finished 4th but (maybe I’m wrong here) before Sunday how many would have thought that he would be head and shoulders above Onley on what was widely considered a climbers course, with riders like VdP (let alone Simmons) only considered to have an outside chance? So my point is that yes, context was considered. Both BMc and Piddy were more-or-less playing the same cards. BMc played it to perfection and won. Piddy came up short. But somehow, according to Piddy, that’s on del Toro for not contributing to the chase at the end…a chase that Piddy might not have been involved with had he played his cards differently, saved his matches and bridged later. I think that is the greater context rather than complaining that del Toro (who was working all day) quit working once his trade teammate went up the road, which should be expected in that scenario.classicsrock01-10-2026
- Perhaps IDT did help, but what I saw was a group of riders that waited 60 seconds before responding to McNulty's acceleration. A whole minute! Really? I said to myself WTF are they thinking? Did physical exhaustion impair their judgement, or was it just chess games? No one wanted to burn their last match? To blame IDT for their lack of response is farcical. If Pidcock and Mathews only took 30 seconds to respond or responded immediately I think McNulty would have been caught.Botch25001-10-2026
