CANYON- SRAM

Established 2016 Team Manager Ronny Lauke Bike Canyon

Last year was disappointing for Canyon-Sram as they failed to record a single UCI ranked victory in 2020. Of course, the stunted season played a part, but while the riders scored a number of top-five placings, they were unable to convert any to wins beyond two at National Championships. Things look to change considerably this year with the arrival of Chloe Dygert on a four-year deal, which marks the American’s first full season of racing in the women’s WorldTour. The 24-year-old is one of the biggest talents in the sport and there is huge anticipation around what she could achieve when finally let loose in Europe. Elsewhere, the core of the team remains with Kasia Niewiadoma, Hannah and Alice Barnes, Tiffany Cromwell and Alena Ameliusik retained. New Zealander Mikayla Harvey, meanwhile, is an equally promising talent, who finished as the best young rider at the Giro Rosa. Her climbing aptitude will no doubt complement that of Niewiadoma at stage races and the climber-friendly classics this year.
