Kyle Evans (born 26 September 1993) is a British BMX rider from Hindley, Greater Manchester, who represents Great Britain in international competitions. He competed in the men's time trial event at the 2015 UCI BMX World Championships.[2]

He was thus eliminated from the tournament.[4][5] Evans made an appearance on the ‘Question of Sport’ episode that aired on 14 November 2018.[6] He acted as a batonbearer for the 2022 Commonwealth Games Queen's Baton Relay when the baton came to Kidsgrove.[7]
