Justyna Czapla Germany

After spending the 2023 season with CANYON//SRAM zondacrypto Generation, Justyna Czapla made the leap to the WorldTeam in 2024, following in the footsteps of fellow German talent Antonia Niedermaier, who had made the transition the year before.

At 21-years-old, Justyna has followed a steady development path after concluding her junior years with a silver medal in the time trial at the 2022 UCI Road World Championships – behind now-teammate Zoe Bäckstedt.

After two seasons that proved invaluable for learning at elite level and adapting to higher physical demands, Justyna began to truly flourish in 2025. Her formidable on-bike strength, matched with an easy-going nature, allowed her to put in tireless work for others, most notably across her first two grand tours. A standout moment came at La Vuelta Femenina, where she pulled on the best young rider jersey after the opening team time trial. At the Giro d’Italia Women, she reinforced her value as a selfless and dependable teammate, helping compatriot Antonia Niedermaier to secure the Maglia Bianca as best young rider.

Individually, she successfully defended her German U23 National Time Trial title in dominant fashion, and recorded a superb seventh place in a highly competitive U23 Time Trial at the UCI Road World Championships in Rwanda, 25 seconds shy of a top-five result.

Looking ahead to 2026, Justyna has one clear goal: to turn that seventh place into a medal in the U23 category at the World Championships – her final year of eligibility. With her steadily growing strength and experience, results like that are well within reach.
