The XDS Astana Development Team is a Kazakhstani UCI Continental cycling team established in 2022. The team acts as the development program for UCI WorldTeam XDS Astana Team.[1]

For the 2022 season the team focused on two goals; To provide a gateway for Kazakh cyclists to reach a higher level and to have a team that will be competitive as a UCI Continental team.[2] With the same goals going into the 2023 season the team focused more on Kazakhstan growth with six riders from Kazakhstan and the rest from around the world.[3]

The first win that was not a national championship came in 2023 at the Tour of Sakarya where Astana Qazaqstan Team rider won while riding for the development team.[4] A rule introduced in 2020 allows riders from the development team to race with the Main team in select races and it allows Main team riders to race with the development team.[5]

In September 2024 Ilkhan Dostiyev was suspended and had his contract terminated after admitting to using a banned substance following an anti-doping rule violation in July 2024.[6]
