In my mind, Contador, simply due to the way he raced. He lit every race any many stages on fire with his attacking style. I’m a bit too young for Pantani, wasn’t really a die-hard cycling fan back then.

Lance Armstrong. 100%
In an age when most of the peloton was doping, he still dominated. Also, he put cycling on the map in the US; and still promotes the sport.
