Well, after ordering the ebike kit and battery cells 2.5 weeks apart, they arrived here on the same day! Hmmm, goodies. The cells have the A123 Systems logo, part #, bar code, etc. still printed on them, and I guess they are made by Enerland facility, in Korea.

The Nine Continent motors are supposed to be one of the lightest built units available, but looks very solid to me. It would be nice if they could make them lighter, adds quite a bit of mass in the wheel, I'm not sure about rotating mass though, I would guess a 1/3 of the total motor weight.
