Import Tips
• Ensure hub is documented as compatible only with bicycles, not motorcycles, to stay within Chapter 87 bicycle parts
• Provide axle type (e.g
• thru-axle) and spoke interface details to confirm it's not a specialized braking hub
• Bundle with supplier affidavits confirming no internal gearing to prevent reclassification during customs review
