Stephen Mark Carton (born 1961 or 1962) is a former New Zealand racing cyclist who won a bronze medal competing for his country at the 1982 Commonwealth Games.

Born in 1961 or 1962, Carton grew up in Lower Hutt.[1] At the 1982 Commonwealth Games, he was a member of the New Zealand team in the 100 km team time trial with Stephen Cox, Blair Stockwell, and Jack Swart.[2][3] During the event, Carton's chain jammed and the other three riders completed the course together, finishing third.[4]

Carton later moved to Melbourne, Australia, to live.[1]
