Looks like a paywall.

That's weird, not for me. Anyhow, precis;

The EU has imposed tariffs on imports of Chinese electric bicycles, in
an effort to shield the bloc’s manufacturers against dumping at a time
of rising trade tensions around the globe.

Brussels decided to impose provisional anti-dumping duties of between
21.8 per cent and 83.6 per cent on inbound shipments of e-bikes from
China, without which it said a further deterioration of the industry’s
economic and financial situation was “very likely”.

Regulators found evidence of dumping — selling a product below home
market prices — as a result of which the region’s e-bike producers
suffered “material injury”.
