The event was effectively an Olympics dress rehearsal and the world championships will be the next stepping stone in the buildup to the Games.
Other key riders coming to Melbourne include Pendleton's team sprint sidekick Jess Varnish, team pursuiters Steven Burke, Ed Clancy and Geraint Thomas and women's team pursuit stars Wendy Houvenaghel and Laura Trott.
But one surprise selection is 19-year-old Philip Hindes, who has taken Ross Edgar's spot in the men's team sprint.
"In London, Ross Edgar was in the early stages of recovering from an injury and we think the best option for him now is to focus his training in the gym and on the road over the next few months," Brailsford said in a statement.
"But this doesn't mean we have ruled him out of selection for the Olympic Games.
"The sprint coaches also feel that Philip Hindes has shown great potential in training and therefore it would be good for his development to shadow the world championships team this year."
Australia, who won two gold medals at the London World Cup, will announce their world championships team next month.
