UNSPSC 25174702: Bicycle spoke

Material that sustains the load of bicycle to support the flawless rotation of wheels.

UNSPSC 25174702 Bicycle spoke is a Commodity code. State and local governments rarely purchase bicycle spokes as a discrete line item; recent activity under this code reflects instead broader law enforcement equipment, athletic goods, and bicycle program support solicitations. The City of Austin's five-year police bicycles contract (IFB 8700 TJP1028, due March 31, 2026) procures 23 manual and 16 electric patrol bikes annually with accessories and maintenance services, while the city's Bike Tool Loan Program procurement (IFQ 6200 AJC1016, due February 2, 2026) sought Park Tool branded repair stands and hand tools for public library checkout systems. Albany State University issued an eRFQ for athletic equipment and customization services (due March 26, 2026), and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative solicited a two-year catalog discount contract for athletic equipment and supplies valued at $13,523,279.00 (due March 26, 2026). Issuing bodies include municipal governments (City of Austin), state universities (Albany State University), and regional purchasing cooperatives (Region 7, Sourcewell), alongside law enforcement and parks departments. Sourcewell, the Minnesota-based cooperative, issued a broad RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026) intended to serve multiple counties, school districts, and public entities across the United States and Canada.

Activity concentrates in Texas and the upper Midwest. Recent solicitations show Austin leading with two active opportunities and Texas-based Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative managing a multi-jurisdiction athletic equipment catalog discount. The Sourcewell law enforcement equipment RFP covers Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington state and entities nationwide. Geographic spread is national through cooperative purchasing vehicles. The code shows limited direct activity—no recent solicitations explicitly naming bicycle spokes as a standalone procurement line. The opportunities posted under this code reflect broader equipment bundles (bikes with accessories, general athletic goods, law enforcement packages) rather than component-level purchasing. Business development professionals should monitor cooperative purchasing framework awards under law enforcement and athletic equipment codes, where spoke suppliers might engage as subcomponents or through vendor relationships with larger equipment distributors.
