Early life and education

He came in fourth in the U-23 race of the 2018 UCI World Championships in Innsbruck, Austria, with his Swiss teammate Marc Hirschi winning the race. According to him, Hirschi's success was the result of a team effort. Several members of the U-23 team did their mandatory military service together. Mäder cycled with some of them since their U-15 days, and with Patrick Müller (who placed 9th) since about the age of 10.
