Dainis Ozols (born 11 September 1966) is a former professional cyclist from Latvia. In the 1992 Summer Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 194 km road race, finishing in 4:32:24, 3 seconds behind Erik Dekker of the Netherlands and 4 seconds behind the winner Fabio Casartelli of Italy.[1] He competed in one Grand Tour in his career: the 1995 Vuelta a España, where he finished 50th overall.

His surname is often misspelled as Ozolos and he is often incorrectly identified as having Polish or Lithuanian Nationality.[citation needed] Early in his amateur career, he did race as a national of the USSR.
