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 that sees minimal direct state and local procurement activity tied to its nominal product scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—does not reflect procurement of bicycle spokes. The Sourcewell cooperative, a Minnesota local government unit, is soliciting law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities across multiple states and Canadian jurisdictions, including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties in Washington, plus thousands of other governmental agencies, school districts, and public entities. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitation suggests either a classification error in how the opportunity was tagged or that bicycle spokes are a subordinate line item within a broader law enforcement equipment contract. The RFP structure is a statewide cooperative purchasing vehicle under Washington law (RCW 39.34), designed to establish framework agreements for use by multiple participating jurisdictions rather than a single transactional procurement.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Minnesota, driven by Sourcewell's role as the contracting intermediary. Vendors must register and submit proposals exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov; no documents are available through other channels. Questions may be directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The solicitation does not identify set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, specific award values, or budget ranges in available documentation. Given the disconnect between the code and the recent solicitation content, business development professionals should verify whether bicycle spokes represent an actual procurement line under this code or whether another UNSPSC designation better reflects current state and local buying patterns in this category.
