Background

    On April 5, 1995, a petition was filed with the Commission and the 
Department of Commerce by Huffy Bicycle Co., Dayton, OH; Murray Ohio 
Manufacturing Co., Brentwood, TN; and Roadmaster Corp., Olney, IL, 
alleging that an industry in the United States is materially injured 
and threatened with material injury by reason of LTFV imports of 
bicycles from China. Accordingly, effective April 5, 1995, the 
Commission instituted antidumping investigation No. 731-TA-731 
(Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigation and of 
a public conference to be held in connection therewith was given by 
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the 
notice in the Federal Register of April 12, 1995 (60 FR 18611). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on April 26, 1995, and all 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in 
person or by counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determination in this investigation 
to the Secretary of Commerce on May 22, 1995. The views of the 
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 2893 (May 1995), entitled 
``Bicycles from China: Investigation No. 731-TA-731 (Preliminary).''

    Issued: May 23, 1995.

    By order of the Commission.
Donna R. Koehnke,
Secretary.
