Road bikes, mountain bikes, city bikes, and gravel bikes are all classified under 8712.00. The EU applies one of the highest MFN rates in Chapter 87 at 14%, and has historically maintained anti-dumping duties on bicycles from China — always verify current ADD/CVD status before importing from China. The wheel size (e.g. 700c, 27.5", 29") does not affect classification. A bicycle sold as a complete unit with accessories (pump, lock, lights) is classified as a bicycle by essential character. Bicycle frames imported separately are classified under 8714.99 as parts.
