U.S. imports of bicycle & cycle wheel rims and spokes (HS 871492) totaled $1.9M in April 2026, traded with 17 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataWheel rims and spokes for bicycles and other cycles are precision-tolerance components where material grade — aluminum alloy versus carbon fiber versus steel — directly affects both performance classification and duty treatment. The US schedule separates wheel rims (8714921000) from spokes and their parts (8714925000), with a residual line (8714920000) covering motorcycles and similar vehicles under headings 8711–8713. Taiwan dominates supply of performance rims, while China is a major source of value-tier components; Canada and Brazil also appear among leading suppliers. Importers should confirm whether rims are designed for bicycles or for motorized cycles, as that distinction determines the applicable tariff line.

Technical specifications — including rim diameter, bead seat width, and intended vehicle type — should accompany the commercial invoice. CBP may request manufacturer catalogs or engineering drawings to confirm whether the rim is designed for pedal cycles (headings 8712) or motorized cycles (headings 8711–8713), since the applicable tariff line differs.
No — the heading does not subdivide by material at the 6-digit level, and the US 10-digit lines under 871492 split by vehicle type (bicycle vs. motorized cycle) rather than by rim material. However, material may affect valuation and, in some cases, country-of-origin determinations for rims assembled from components sourced in multiple countries.
