That's a nice pack Benjy, have you tried to see what's the total capacity you can use from the pack? I recommend you to do it so you'll know later the health of your pack.
Hello, I followed your posts for some time because I am trying to make an eBrompton with a Cryst. motor also. After having some problems fitting the motor (like you have) I couln't get the motor running fine. Not enough torque and speed. After ordering another motor I discovered the first one (the same as yours) isn't suitable for Brompton. The one I have now is about 5 mm. less wide and fits the front fork without stretching it.Ok so yesterday I pretty much completed my Brompton build in one day. The first thing I found is that the Crystalyte G209 motor may well have a 74mm dropout spacing but it WILL NOT fit straight into Brompton forks! The only way the motor will clear the forks is by using the supplied washers which makes it effectively 10-15mm wider!
So I had to stretch the forks somewhat using threaded rod so that the wheel would go in. Incidentally there is no indication on the motor which way it will rotate either so for reference if anybody else uses this motor the wire exits on the left of the bike (which I found after getting it backwards).

While still testing I just wanted you to know.

Yes, I did have a problem with a bent spoke. And it stumped me for a while.Has anybody had just one bent spoke before?
