What distinguishes the greatest sprinters in cycling history? Surely, their palmarès. A massive amount of Grand Tour stages, a handful of points competition jerseys, a few Classic wins and possibly a World Championship victory or two make them the fastest men in professional cycling.
Our list was originally compiled in 2011, but much has changed since then. Sprinters like André Greipel, Marcel Kittel, Caleb Ewan, Sam Bennett, Elia Viviani and Michael Matthews have all won stages in all three Grand Tours. Are they the best of all time? It's tough to narrow down the list.
