Road cycling

This section tabulates the heads of qualification in a form suitable to be filled in as events progress. The full qualification rules for cycling (road) published by UCI contain intricate conditions too lengthy for inclusion in Misplaced Pages.

A total of 180 cyclists (90 per gender) raced through the Paris 2024 course. Each NOC could enter a maximum of eight riders (four per gender) in road cycling with specific parameters: a maximum of four in the men's and women's road races and two in the men's and women's road time trial. The majority of the berths were attributed to a specific number of riders per NOC based on the UCI Road World Ranking list by nations for the 2022–2023 season.

As the host country, France reserved a single men's and women's quota place in the road race. When one or two French cyclists qualified directly and regularly, their spare slots were reallocated to the next highest-ranked eligible NOCs in the aforementioned events based on the national order of the UCI World Ranking list by 17 October 2023. The remainder of the total quota were offered to the two highest-ranked NOCs (each composed of a single rider) vying for qualification at three of the continental meets (Africa, Asia, and the Americas) and at the 2023 UCI World Championships in and around Glasgow, Scotland.

For the time trial, thirty-five spots per gender were awarded to the NOCs ranked 1 to 25 from the UCI World Ranking list, respecting the minimum continental distribution, and the rest with only a single quota place each from the 2023 World Championships.

Mountain biking

This section tabulates the heads of qualification in a form suitable to be filled in as events progress. The full qualification rules for cycling (mountain biking) published by UCI contain intricate conditions too lengthy for inclusion in Misplaced Pages.

A total of 72 mountain bikers (36 per gender) raced through the Paris 2024 cross-country course, a slight reduction from those competing in Tokyo 2020 by four athletes. Each NOC could enter a maximum of four bikers (two per gender) in the men's and women's cross-country races. Host country France reserved one men's and women's quota place if unqualified, while two more spots were entitled to the eligible NOCs interested to have their mountain bikers compete for Paris 2024, as granted by the Universality principle.

The majority of the berths was awarded to the nineteen highest-ranked NOCs with a specific number of qualified bikers (a duo of riders for NOCs ranked 1 to 8 and a single rider for NOCs ranked 9 to 19) based on the points acquired throughout the biennial UCI Mountain Bike Olympic Qualification period (running from May 7, 2022, to May 26, 2024). Outside Europe and Oceania, the highest-ranked NOC per gender secured a single quota place at the cross-country continental championships for Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The remaining four spots were allocated to the top mountain bikers competing at the 2023 UCI World Championships in Glasgow and its outlying areas across Scotland, with two each in the elite and under-23, respectively.

This section tabulates the heads of qualification in a form suitable to be filled in as events progress. The full qualification rules for cycling (BMX) published by UCI contain intricate conditions too lengthy for inclusion in Misplaced Pages.

A total of 48 BMX riders (24 per gender) raced through the Paris 2024 course. Each NOC could enter a maximum of three spots per gender.

Seventeen of them with a specific number of qualified riders (a trio for the top two NOCs, a duo for NOCs ranked 3 to 5, and a single rider for NOCs ranked 6 to 10) received a coveted spot based on the points accumulated throughout the biennial UCI BMX Olympic Qualification period (running from August 1, 2022, to June 4, 2024). Outside Europe and Oceania, the highest-ranked NOC per gender secured a single quota place at the BMX continental championships for Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
