At least in most of the countries of the 27-member European Union.

The article also includes a link to an interesting 2012 overview of the U.S. bike industry. 2012 is described as a solid year for the industry.

If you believe the numbers in the later report, then new bikes outsell cars in the U.S. as well. U.S. vehicle sales are estimated to be about 16 million this year.

I find it hard to believe the large number of bike sold with smaller than 20″ wheels.
