The men's time trial class C1-3 track cycling event at the 2024 Summer Paralympics took place on 31 August 2024 at the Vélodrom National at Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. 17 cyclists from 14 nations competed in this event.
This combined class (C1-3) under classification C is for cyclists who have impairments that affect their legs, arms, and/or trunk but are still capable to use a standard bicycle:
Competition format The competition immediately begins with the qualification round, where the 18 cyclists will individually in their own heat, compete by doing a time trial basis where the fastest two cyclist will qualify to compete for gold, the third and fourth fastest will qualify to compete for bronze. The distance of this event is 1000m.
A cyclist may have a different 'result time' than their real-time due to this event being a combined class event (C1-3), and some cyclists in their own class may have a disadvantage over other classes (for example due to speed), thus athlete factoring is used.
Despite this, different classifications have their own world and paralympic Games records.

Results Qualifying The C1–3 individual pursuit is a multi-classification event. To ensure fairness, factoring is applied to the times of each cyclist based on their classification, and it is this factored time represents their result, both in qualification and, if that cyclist qualifies, the final In a men's C1-2-3 track event, the factor for a C1 rider is 92.01, for a C2 is 94.50 and for a C3 is 100.00. The result of the cyclist is calculated as a percentage of the elapsed time, with the factor providing the relevant percentage.UCI 2024 paracycling factors
