British twins Adam and Simon Yates have signed new two-year deals with the ORICA-Bike Exchange team.
The pair started their professional careers with the Australian outfit in 2014 and have flourished since on the WorldTour scene.
But the 24-year-olds from Bury have suffered differing fortunes this year with Adam finishing fourth in the Tour de France and in the white jersey of best young rider, the first Briton to win that classification.
Simon, however, missed the Tour as he was serving a four-month ban after the team doctor failed to properly apply for a medical exemption for his asthma treatment.
He bounced back from that blow, though, by claiming his first victory at the Prueba Villafranca-Ordizia Klasika one-day race in Spain last month.
