Lothar Meister (26 January 1931 - 31 January 2021) was a German cyclist who was active between 1949 and 1960. He won the UCI Motor-paced World Championships in 1958 and finished in third place the next year.[1][2]

He should not be confused with another cyclist of the same name who was competing in the same period, in the same area in East Germany (although a few years older, he was known as Lothar Meister II to differentiate between the two).
