Dannielle Khan (born 1 September 1995) is an English racing cyclist from Solihull, West Midlands, England, who currently rides for Abergavenny RC Women’s Team.[2] She won the sprint and 500m TT events at the Juniors world championships in 2013, as well as the silver medal in the Keirin.

Khan started her sporting life as a short track speed skater, and was encouraged to try cycling as part off her off season conditioning. She quickly found success on the velodrome and became a member of British Cycling's Olympic Development Programme in 2012.[2]

In August 2013, at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome in Glasgow, Khan represented Britain at the UCI Juniors Track World Championships.[3]
