Big Tariff News — And What It Means for Your Next Wired Ebike
There was a major development today (February 20, 2026) in Washington that directly impacts electric bikes imported from China — including ours.
Here’s the simple version.
What Just Happened?
The U.S. Supreme Court struck down certain recently imposed tariffs on Chinese imports. Specifically:
-
The additional 20% tariff
-
The additional 10% tariff
These were ruled unconstitutional.
However:
-
The long-standing 25% Section 301 tariff is still in effect.
What Are Section 301 Tariffs?
Section 301 tariffs were implemented in 2018 as part of a broader trade dispute with China.
They apply to many imported products — including e-bikes — at a rate of 25%.
That 25% tariff is still fully active.
What changed today only affects the extra 20% and 10% layers that were added later.
What This Means for Wired Customers
We had a container of Wired Freedom bikes recently arrive in port. We were literally in the process of paying those additional tariffs when this ruling came down!
Because those extra tariffs were struck down, we no longer have to pay that additional 20% + 10% on this shipment.
When we save money, you save money.
Wired Freedom — Back to Pre-Tariff Pricing
For a limited time:
Wired Freedom is now $1,999.
That’s essentially pre-tariff pricing.
No gimmicks. No catch. Just passing along the savings while we can.
Why This Won’t Last
We fully expect the administration to respond by implementing new, legally structured tariffs under different sections of U.S. trade law.
When that happens, import costs will go up again.
We anticipate industry-wide price increases in May or June.
So this is a window — not a permanent change.
Why Other Models Aren’t Dropping
You might wonder why only the Freedom model is reduced.
Two reasons:
-
Tariffs on other models were already paid.
-
Even with this ruling, all models are still subject to the 25% Section 301 tariff.
While the extra layers were removed, the core 25% remains — and those costs are already built into existing inventory.
3-Month Price Guarantee
We understand hesitation.
If any other model drops in price within 3 months of your purchase, we will refund you the difference.
No stress. No second-guessing.
That said, we expect prices to increase — not decrease — as new tariffs are likely introduced.
NO OTHER COMPANY HAS REDUCED THEIR PRICES THIS QUICK AND OFFERS A PRICE GUARANTEE LIKE WIRED EBIKES DOES!
The Bottom Line
-
25% Section 301 tariff is still active.
-
The additional 20% + 10% tariffs were struck down.
-
Our latest Freedom shipment benefited.
-
Prices across the industry are likely to rise again soon.
This is one of those rare moments where customers win.
If you’ve been watching the Wired Freedom, this is your opportunity.
When import costs rise, retail prices follow.
For now, we caught a break — and you get it.
