Product classification

HS code for Bike pedals: 8714.96

Cycles, parts, pedals and crank-gear, and parts thereof.

Classification of bike pedals under HS 8714.96

Bicycle pedals and crank-gear are classified under HS code 8714.96. Chapter 87 covers vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling-stock, and parts and accessories thereof. Heading 8714 is specifically for parts and accessories of vehicles of headings 8711 to 8713, which includes bicycles. The subheading 8714.96 is explicitly for pedals and crank-gear. This classification includes the entire assembly used to transfer the rider's leg power to the chain or belt drive. The technical distinction is based on the mechanical function of the part within the bicycle's drivetrain. Whether the pedals are simple plastic platforms or high-end carbon fiber clipless systems, they remain under this code because their primary function and design are for bicycle propulsion. The crank-gear portion of the code covers the crank arms and the chainrings attached to them, which are essential for the mechanical advantage required to move the cycle.

Codes often confused with 8714.96

Common mistake. Pedals are sometimes incorrectly filed under HS code 8714.99, which is a general category for other bicycle parts. However, because 8714.96 specifically mentions pedals and crank-gear, it must be used according to the principle of specificity. It can also be confused with 7318 if the pedals are shipped as individual steel components like bolts or pins without the main body.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. UN Comtrade records Taiwan as "Other Asia, not elsewhere specified". Saudi Arabia's exports under that code are left out: they are far too large to be trade with Taiwan, so mostly undisclosed partners. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
