"We are extremely excited to welcome Jenny to the Canyon family," announces CLLCTV Factory XC Team Manager Sebastien Francois. "Her incredible career and fearless racing style are a perfect fit for our mission to support riders at the absolute pinnacle of the sport."

Jenny's story is an inspiration. From her gold medal at the Rio Olympics to her unique understanding of what it means to ride her own race, Jenny has earned her reputation as one of the most interesting riders on the XC scene. Her explosive power, masterful handling and unwavering determination make Jenny one of the most versatile competitors around.

The 30-year-old burst onto the international cross-country scene with her gold medal at Rio 2016, but fans in her native Sweden had been aware of her talent long before that - at the latest after she won the national championships three times in a row. Rio was her springboard to even greater successes, such as her victory at the U23 World Championships and - after a two-year break - a string of cross-country and short-track World Cup successes since 2019.

Jenny couldn't be more excited about the start of this new chapter: "The Canyon CLLCTV is a huge opportunity for me. I've been riding bikes for so long now, but I think there's still a lot for me to learn and a lot of opportunities to improve. I'm really looking forward to working together and seeing what we can learn and improve together. I'm very happy about this new chapter in my career."

Experienced stars and next generation talent

The team is also proud to welcome two young talents  Valentina Corvi (below, left) and Noa Filippi (below, right). As the reigning U23 national champion, Valentina has her eye primarily on the cross-country podiums, but has also already made a name for herself in cyclo-cross. Her French teammate Noa has several junior cross-country and short track titles to his name and is entering his first year at the top of the junior ranks with plenty of potential and ambition.

All in all, the team is set for the 2025 season with the perfect balance of experience and raw talent. With cross-country locomotive Luca Schwarzbauer (Germany) and the finesse of Thomas Griot (France) as well as Spanish U23 star Thibaut François, a promising mix has been created.    

"This line-up has it all," adds Sebastien. "With Jenny and Lucas' leadership qualities, Thomas and Thibaut's energy and the breath of fresh air from Valentina and Noa, we can look forward to an incredible season. 2025 is going to be epic."
