I'm not sure it's that clear cut. I believe the Wisper is street legal, as long as the button is not pressed. I'm sure David looked into this during design.
Then what about the Torq? Mr Ching says it assists to 16mph (and other ezee bikes I know will assist to 17 on fresh batteries). As 16 > 15 or 15.5, I don't know if that would pass an ultra-pedantic 'street legal'test. I think you have to allow production bikes to compete or it seems a bit contrived!
