The men's individual pursuit class B track cycling event at the 2024 Summer Paralympics took place on 29 August 2024 at the Vélodrome National. This class is for the cyclist who is blind or has visual impairments, thus they ride tandem bicycles with a sighted cyclist (also known as the pilot). There will be 16 pairs (32 competitors athlete+pilots) from 12 different nations competing.
The competition starts with a qualifying round where a time trial basis will be between the 16 pairs; all 16 pairs will be divided into 8 heats, all heats having 2 pairs. The 2 fastest pairs in the qualifying would qualify to the gold medal final while the 3rd and 4th fastest will qualify to the bronze medal final where they will race head-to-head. The distance of this event is 3000m. The medal finals are also held on the same day as the qualifying.
All times are Central European Summer Time (UTC+2)[1]
