Yes Chris, the sprocket size determines the final assist cutoff point corresponds with the legal limit, 25 kph in most of Europe and 24 in Germany. For Europe in general that leaves the highest point of maximum power at 9.4 mph and the phase down as described. If they were sold in Sweden it would be 30 kph and maximum power to 11.3 mph.

That's not Sweden suddenly getting all liberal, they have a higher minimum age limit of 15 years, and all riders have to wear helmets and have third party insurance.
