Since you already found the Nachtmahr page, here is an explanation: In
order to move from b1 to e4, the Crooked Nightrider must contain the
diagonal narrow crooked nightrider. In order to checkmate the poor king
from e4 it must contain the straight narrow crooked nightrider. We cannot
conclude whether it contains more components from that little bit of
information, hence in a strict interpretation the two components mentioned
make up Betza's Crooked Nightrider.
