Jon Aberasturi Izaga (born 28 March 1989) is a Spanish cyclist, who currently rides for UCI ProTeam Euskaltel–Euskadi.
Career
Following a very successful 2017 season where he took 7 professional victories he had trouble finding a contract and even considered retirement. Included in those wins is Stage 1 of the 2.HC rated Tour of Qinghai Lake. He ended up signing for UCI Professional Continental team Euskadi–Murias. In August 2018, he was named in the startlist for the Vuelta a España. He was disqualified from the 2021 Tour de Luxembourg for using the 'Super-Tuck'. The 'Super-Tuck' is a position on the bike which was banned by the UCI who deemed it dangerous. Aberasturi was fined 500 Swiss francs and lost 15 UCI points for the season. Aberasturi signed with Euskaltel–Euskadi for the 2024 season. He had previously rode for the team in 2017 and was supported by the Euskaltel Foundation throughout his youth.
