Hello! I have been researching parts for a while and I cant wait to start building. I will be purchasing an Enertion R - SPEC motor and Enertion's motor mount. I will also be purchasing the ADS 32T Kegel Hub Driver. I'm not sure about what type of belt to buy and what pulley I should buy to go on the motor. Any help about a belt size or pulley size would be appreciated. Thanks!
What belt should I use?

Tough one to answer. It will depend on your gear size (circumference) and length between motor and truck axle.
There's an online calculator somewhere to help you sort this out. I have a handful of belts since i have multiple setups and i usually to to use the shortest belt possible. Another helpful thing once you find the length you need is where to get them. I've had great success with polybelt.com - if you are in the states at least. They ship fast, reasonable shipping cost, and you can't beat the price vs others. That's why i try to keep 2-4 spares of most common lengths from 260-280.
Did a quick search - here's the calculator i mentioned:

Am i missing something? I don't see anything that determines belt length?
Gearing and speed but not belts.
Thanks! These calculators will be very useful.
So here is my parts list:
1. Enertion Motor Mount
2. Enertion R - SPEC Motor
2. ADS 32T Driver
3. Enertion 14T Pulley
At this point, I'm not sure what the distance between the 14T pulley and the 32T driver is. If I knew, I could accurately calculate which belt I need. Should I go ahead and buy Enertion's 265-55T 9mm wide HTD5 belt (comes with Enertion's mounting kit) or should I wait to measure everything?
