Infobox cyclist provides an overview and summary of a racing cyclist or team manager with the most sought after information in an easy to view sideframe to the article proper. It is intended for all elite (professional) cyclists across disciplines and the capability of including management details reflects the number of former cyclists in management roles. It should only be used for competitive racing cyclists, namely professionals and those competing at Olympic or World level.

Use as a child template  The child or embed parameter is used when embedding this infobox into another.   Style guide    Density of information   Try to always consider that an infobox exists to support an article and provide a quick synopsis of important facts. This becomes vital when considering that the amount of space available within an infobox is significantly less than that available outside of it. Adding all seventy three nicknames and entire palmares that a rider might have is highly informative, but will defeat the purpose of the infobox.  Icons As per WP:MOSICON, the use of icons, including flags and jersey icons, in infoboxes is discouraged. A flag template may be used in conjunction with  if the {{{medaltemplates}}} field is used.
