CANYON//SRAM Racing is delighted to announce that Finnish talent Wilma Aintila will join the World Tour Team through to the end of 2026.

Wilma is an emerging Finnish cyclist who is steadily building a reputation as a versatile rider capable of performing in a variety of terrains. With two seasons of racing in the elite category, Wilma has gained valuable experience and consistently improved her results. This year, she won the U23 ITT title at the national championships, was second in the national road race and finished fifth in the youth classification at the Baloise Ladies Tour—an imposing palmares at just twenty years of age.

Wilma Aintila: “I’m super excited to join CANYON//SRAM Racing! It feels like the perfect next step in my journey to becoming a professional athlete, and honestly, a dream come true. I can’t wait to be a part of the team, smash our team goals, and keep growing as an athlete along the way.”

“I’m excited about the chance to join CANYON//SRAM Racing because I can bring my strengths to help the team. I’m a positive person who values good team spirit. I always want things done to the highest standard without compromise. As a powerful rider, I bring strength, which will make a real impact. I’m looking forward to the spring classics and one day, I aim to be on the podium for a spring classic.”

“The World Tour Team environment and the resources of CANYON//SRAM Racing will greatly impact my further growth as a rider. To reach the top, everything in the background must be in place, and CANYON//SRAM provides the perfect setup. I immediately felt a strong sense of trust when speaking with the team. Plus, with the support of a great team of professionals—from physiotherapists to nutritionists, mechanics, and team management—I’m confident that I’ll have everything I need to achieve great results.”

“There’s still so much I want to achieve in my career, but so far, I’m proud of how I’ve been able to help my team perform well in big races. Another highlight has been competing in individual time trials at major championships—I look back on it with pride and excitement!”
