    BMC V2 with 8 speed freewheel?

    From what I've read, it will accommodate a 7spd, but an 8spd might require spreading the rear triangle. I don't want to do that, as mine is aluminum, but I do want to confirm the 8spd won't fit before I order. I've put the motor on the frame, and it seems to fit well... the flattened portions...

I've seen some top speed estimates for the 'speed' version, and I've seen the claims that the torque version has better low speed torque at...
