Speed cut out question for Vitus E Sommet VR

[The Chimpion]

Hello from Texas!
Question: Does anybody know what speed the pedal assistance cuts out for a Vitus E Sommet VR shipped to the U.S.? Essentially I'm asking, will it be shipped set up for compliance to the higher speed allowed in the US, or will it be set to the slower max speed allowed in the UK?

Neither CRC or Wiggle ship to US
all their ebikes will conform to UK legislation

I ordered from CRC yesterday for shipment to my home in Texas. Do you think I was scammed? I did receive a confirmation email from CRC.

Sorry. maybe they've changed their poilcy now. They def wouldn't ship the 2018 model outside UK/Ireland.

CRC recently changed their shipping policy on Shimano parts to no longer supply the US.
Ask CRC/Wiggle rather than here

Yes maybe a phone call even might have been a glitch in the matrix ... like cathay pacific coc up

CRC're a nightmare to try and get on the phone from the UK.
Livechat is the best bet here.
Dunno if that's different from US

If you order one you could have the first and only Vitus E Sommet in the U.S. ... maybe!
