Laura Stigger (born 25 September 2000) is an Austrian racing cyclist.[1] She won the women's junior road race at the 2018 UCI Road World Championships and the junior Mountain Bike race (XCO)[2] event at the 2018 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships.[3][4][5] She also won the junior Mountain Bike race (XCO) event at the 2017 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships.[2]

To date, Stigger is the only cyclist to win both the Road World Championship and the Mountain Bike World Championship in the same year, winning both titles within twenty-two days.[6] The former was only her second road race ever.[5]

In 2017 and 2018, she won every Junior Mountain Bike race she participated in, a total of 26 races, with most of them at international level.[7] It was the same when she was younger still.[8][9]

She competed in the cross-country race at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[10]
