Last updated: April 2026 dataPedals and crank-gear occupy a mechanically distinct niche in the bicycle component supply chain, with the US schedule separating pedals and their parts (8714961000) from cotterless-type crank sets (8714965000) and other crank-gear (8714969000). Taiwan and Japan are the dominant suppliers — Japan's Shimano produces a significant share of globally traded cranksets and pedal systems across all price tiers. Malaysia also ranks among leading sources, reflecting regional manufacturing for mid-range drivetrain components. Cotterless crank sets, which attach via a tapered square or splined interface rather than a cotter pin, have their own dedicated line, so importers must confirm the attachment system before filing.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A cotterless crank set uses a tapered or splined interface — such as a square taper, ISIS, or Octalink — to attach the crank arm to the bottom bracket spindle without a cotter pin. These classify under 8714965000. Crank arms that use a cotter pin or other attachment method, as well as chainrings sold separately, fall under the residual crank-gear line 8714969000.
Yes. Clipless pedals (also called clip-in or step-in pedals) are still pedals for classification purposes and fall under 8714961000 regardless of whether they incorporate a retention mechanism. The cleats themselves, if imported separately, may classify under heading 871499 as accessories, so mixed shipments of pedals and cleats should be itemized separately on the entry.
