Choi Tae-ho (born 22 May 2007) is a South Korean track cyclist. He won two gold medals at the 2025 UCI Junior Track Cycling World Championships, and is considered one of Korea's best cycling prospects.[2]
Choi was a competitive skier at a young age, but transitioned to cycling on a coach's recommendation. His family moved to Australia for better training opportunities, then to New Zealand where Choi worked with coach John Andrews, father of two-time Olympic gold medalist Ellesse Andrews.[2]
In 2025, at 18 years old, Choi was selected to the senior national team for the UCI world championships, the youngest participant for South Korea since 1979. He finished 18th in the 1km time trial, setting a national record of 1:00.465.[3]
