UNSPSC 25161505: Mountain bicycles

UNSPSC 25161505 Mountain bicycles (Commodity) covers electric and traditional bicycles procured by state and local jurisdictions for mobility programs, law-enforcement operations, and community transportation initiatives. State and local governments buy electric class I and class II/III bicycles under this code, along with purpose-built law-enforcement patrol bicycles engineered for tactical operations and mechanics training. Recent solicitations show demand for bulk e-bike purchases funded through sustainability grants, point-of-sale rebate partnerships with local retailers, and specialized patrol bicycles for law-enforcement agencies establishing bicycle response teams. Issuing bodies include city transportation divisions, metropolitan police departments, regional commissions managing sustainable-mobility programs, and state police agencies. The code sees activity across multiple jurisdictions with no single dominant repeat buyer, though the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department appears twice in the recent record.

Recent opportunities span California, Georgia, Illinois, and the District of Columbia. The City of Hayward Transportation Division posted RFQ 27004 on October 9, 2026, soliciting approximately 250 electric class I bicycles with nationally recognized NRTL battery certification for distribution to students, seniors, and persons with disabilities under a California Air Resources Board grant, with responses due October 27, 2026. The Atlanta Regional Commission posted RFQu706 on June 24, 2026, seeking local e-bike retailers to serve as point-of-sale rebate partners in the City of Atlanta E-Bike Rebate Program, with submissions due July 23, 2026; the program targets 600–800 e-bike sales with rebates of $1,600, $1,100, or $550 depending on household income and a maximum budget of $960,000. The Illinois State Police, Division of Patrol, awarded a sole source contract to Volcanic Partners LLC (posted April 28, 2026) for law-enforcement-grade patrol bicycles and mechanics training for a Bicycle Unit Response Team at an estimated value of $212,000 with a June 30, 2026 delivery date. The District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department issued two separate invitations for bid on mountain bikes in July 2026, though detail on scope and specifications was not disclosed in the available records.
