Beñat Albizuri Aransolo (born May 17, 1981 in Berriz, Basque Country) is a Spanish former professional road bicycle racer, who rode professionally between 2006 and 2008, entirely for Euskaltel–Euskadi.

He rode as a stagiaire for Euskaltel–Euskadi in the second half of the 2005 season, where his best result was a second place on a stage of the Vuelta a La Rioja. Albizuri's showings earned him a professional contract at Euskaltel–Euskadi for the 2006 season, but he was released at the end of the 2008 season.
