CANYON//SRAM Racing is delighted to announce that Chloé Dygert has extended her contract with the team for another two years through to 2026. Over the past four seasons, Chloé has continually shown resilience in returning from various illness and injury setbacks to be an integral part of the team’s successes. Her dedication, commitment, and winning mentality are invaluable assets for the World Tour Team as it moves toward the following seasons.

Reflecting on her decision to stay with CANYON//SRAM Racing, Chloé emphasised the support and commitment she has received from the team:

“There are a number of reasons why I chose CANYON//SRAM Racing four years ago, and there are even more reasons now for me to stay. There aren’t many teams, if any, that would stand by a rider’s side at their weakest on and off the bike, and CANYON//SRAM Racing has done that for me countless times. I am privileged to have the opportunity to remain a part of the team.”

“To be honest, there never really was a doubt about extending my contract. Over the past four years, I have struggled probably more than I care to admit, and the team was there to keep me going through it all. For that, I am forever grateful.”

The team’s collaborative spirit has been essential in fostering Chloé’s growth as a rider, where she expanded her palmares from early career successes primarily in the USA and on the track to podiums and victories in some of the world’s biggest stage races such as the Giro d’Italia, Vuelta Femenina España, Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift and Ford RideLondon Classique. Chloé added a bronze medal at her third Olympic Games in Paris last month in the individual time trial and a coveted gold medal in the team pursuit with Team USA. On Sunday, 22 September, she will aim to defend her rainbow title at the UCI Elite ITT World Championships in Zurich, Switzerland.

Beyond Sunday, Chloé looks forward to what the team and she can achieve together in the coming seasons:

“Our team chemistry and how we all can work together on and off the bike make being teammates in the most crucial moments and races of the season possible. I am excited to continue working with and for our team. I am very fortunate to have the ability to go for victories and help others achieve the same! We make each other stronger.”

For the upcoming year, Chloé has set a clear goal for herself, emphasising the importance of maintaining her health as the foundation for all achievements:

“First and foremost, my main goal is to remain healthy. If I can maintain my health, I believe most anything the team and I create as a goal can be accomplished. The team says jump; I’ll ask how high. We have greatness to achieve, and I’m looking forward to seeing how we can accomplish it!”

CANYON//SRAM Racing will have three riders competing in the ITT World Championships on Sunday, 22 September: Chloé Dygert (USA) and Agnieszka Skalniak-Sójka (POL) in the Elite category and Antonia Niedermaier (GER), the defending U23 ITT World Champion.
