U.S. imports of Parts & Accessories for Bicycles and Other Non-Motorized Cycles (NES) (SITC 78537) totaled $40.8M in August 2026, imported from 57 countries.
Importers of Parts & Accessories for Bicycles and Other Non-Motorized Cycles (NES) paid $6.7M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 16.29% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataBicycle parts and accessories — spanning drivetrains, braking systems, handlebars, saddles, and electronic components for e-bikes — are among the most actively traded articles in this SITC residual category, which excludes motorcycle and moped parts covered elsewhere. China has historically dominated supply of bicycle components to the US market, and a broad range of these goods has been subject to Section 301 tariffs, prompting significant sourcing shifts toward Vietnam, Taiwan, and other alternative origins. Correct classification at the component level is important because some e-bike parts (motors, batteries) may be pulled into different HTS headings depending on their principal function.

Electric motors and lithium-ion battery packs used in e-bikes may be classifiable under their own HTS headings (electric motors or batteries) rather than as bicycle parts, depending on whether they are imported as standalone units or as part of an assembled bicycle. The principal-use and essential-character tests guide this determination, and a customs broker's review is recommended before entry.
Section 301 tariffs on Chinese-origin bicycle components have accelerated procurement diversification toward Taiwan, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Importers must verify country-of-origin rules carefully, as substantial transformation requirements apply — assembly of Chinese-origin components in a third country does not automatically confer a new origin for tariff purposes.
