Pavel Buran (born 25 April 1973) is a Czech former professional track cyclist. A multiple medalist at the European Championships, Buran won a bronze medal in the Keirin in 2000. As a junior, he is reputed to have done a track stand in the sprint event which lasted so long, the UCI introduced time limits for which riders were allowed to remain stationary during the event.
