In the men’s endurance team, Dan Bigham joins Tokyo Olympians Ethan Vernon, Ollie Wood and Charlie Tanfield as GB bid to regain the men’s team pursuit title they lost three years ago, having previously dominated the event in the previous three Games.
The women’s road and track endurance riders, as well as the BMX racing and freestyle park squads, will be announced on 4 July.
Last week, two-time Olympic gold medallist Katie Archibald said she would miss the Paris Games through injury.
Archibald, who had been expected to contest the women’s team pursuit, omnium and madison, broke two bones in her leg and tore ligaments off the bone after tripping over a step in her garden.
Based on the overall number of medals, Great Britain is the most successful nation in the history of Olympic cycling.
They have won 100 medals across all disciplines, including 38 golds. At the Tokyo Olympics three years ago, Team GB won 12 medals, six of which were gold.
Stephen Park, British Cycling’s performance director, said: “We’re blessed with an incredibly talented, passionate and hungry squad of riders, and we are now fully focused on supporting their final preparations so they can be at their very best come Paris.”
