EU Extends Anti-Dumping Duties on Electric Bikes from China—A Boon for Local Makers

The European Commission has confirmed the extension of anti-dumping and countervailing duties on electric bicycles imported from China for another five years, a move designed to protect Europe’s domestic e-bike sector.

Following an in-depth expiry review, officials concluded that Chinese producers continue to benefit from unfair subsidies and dumping practices, creating a significant threat to EU manufacturers if measures were allowed to lapse.

Safeguarding Jobs and Standards

The duties, first imposed in 2019, will now remain in place until at least 2030. Depending on cooperation levels, Chinese exporters face anti-dumping tariffs ranging from 9.9% to 70.1% and countervailing duties from 3.9% to 17.2%.

EU officials estimate the measures safeguard around 12,000 jobs across the Union, particularly in countries with thriving cycling industries such as Germany, the Netherlands, and France.

For EU policymakers, this is not only about fair competition, but also about ensuring that Europe’s Green Deal transport ambitions are built on safe, reliable, and locally sustained products.


Why It Matters for EU Consumers

For everyday riders in Europe, the decision will likely mean:

  • Higher costs for low-end Chinese imports, discouraging unsafe and uncertified models.
  • Greater availability of EU-made and EU-stored models, benefitting from local logistics and consumer protections.
  • Stronger confidence in safety and after-sales service, as European oversight remains stricter than many global counterparts.


DYU’s Back-to-School Sale: Safe Alternatives for Students and Families

One international brand aligning closely with EU market expectations is DYU, which maintains European distribution hubs and a growing customer base across the continent.

During its Back-to-School Sale, three models stand out for their balance of affordability, safety, and performance:

DYU A1F Pro – Compact & Convenient

  • 16-inch folding design, 250W motor, and a 48V 7.5Ah removable battery with protective BMS.
  • Range of around 40 km, with mid-shock suspension for smoother rides.
  • Ideal for students in European cities with tight storage spaces.

DYU D3F – Reliable & Student-Friendly

  • 14-inch folding frame, 36V 10Ah lithium battery, and up to 45 km range.
  • Lightweight, portable, and equipped with temperature and short-circuit protection.
  • A safe starter model for younger or first-time e-bike riders.

DYU Stroll 1 700C City – The Urban Performer

  • 700×38C puncture-resistant tyres, dual hydraulic disc brakes, and an efficient 250W motor (500W peak).
  • Range of up to 100 km with a 36V 9Ah removable battery.
  • Perfect for longer commutes in major EU cities, from Paris to Amsterdam.

All three bikes emphasize battery safety, removable charging, and certified design standards, in line with European expectations of product reliability and sustainability.


Industry Perspective: Levelling the Playing Field

European cycling associations welcomed the move, noting that without such duties, the flood of artificially cheap imports could undermine not only businesses, but also consumer trust in safe e-mobility.

LEVA-EU highlighted that while duties help, market surveillance must be reinforced to prevent unsafe batteries and uncertified chargers from slipping through EU borders.


Looking Ahead: The Road for EU Riders

  • Short Term: Consumers may notice higher prices for budget Chinese models, but safer alternatives will dominate.
  • Medium Term: EU assembly and distribution hubs (including those supporting brands like DYU) will shorten delivery times and boost warranty coverage.
  • Long Term: The decision strengthens the EU’s ability to meet climate goals by fostering a sustainable, well-regulated e-bike ecosystem.


Conclusion

The EU’s extension of anti-dumping duties signals a clear message: Europe will protect its e-bike industry and ensure fair, safe, and sustainable growth. For riders across EU countries—from Belgium’s cobblestone streets to the cycling highways of the Netherlands—this means more reliable options and fewer risks from poorly made imports.

And with DYU’s A1F Pro, D3F, and Stroll 1 700C featured in the Back-to-School Sale, consumers have timely, trustworthy choices that combine affordability with European-friendly safety standards.
