Cycling at the 1976 Summer Olympics – Men's sprint


These are the results of the Men's 1 km Sprint at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, held from 21 to 24 July 1976. There were twenty-five participants.

Competition format

This sprint competition involved a series of head-to-head matches. The 1976 competition featured a smaller field than previous Games, reducing the number of rounds from ten to eight by eliminating the second round and second repechage. The 1976 sprint involved ten rounds: five main rounds as well as two repechages after the first two main rounds; the second repechage was a two-round repechage.
