Is my motor shaft length too short for the 15mm motor pulley? My motor shaft is 26mm. @torqueboards

It is not too short.

Should the thick side of the motor pulley be on the outside? Because if it is, the screws just miss the shaft

All batteries have voltage sag, it’s unavoidable in the real world. Some batteries just have less than others.
A 10s2p pack will have more sag than say a 10s4p at the same load, because the load per cell is twice as high.
Li-ion cylindrical cells have more sag than high-discharge lipo batteries, but there are many other benefits that outweigh that limitation, like energy density and cycle life.

Ideally yes, because then the belt would be closer to the motor, appying less force to the shaft and such expanding life time.
Please let @b264 or @MysticalDork confirm this, I just try to be first aid

Yea that does make sense, but I don’t think I will be able to do it that way. Hopefully the shaft doesn’t break on me.

I don’t even use the bolts on the pulley shoulder.
Make sure you use a 3mm key and put threadlocker on the grubscrews in the pulley. Use Wera Hex Plus wrenches if you don’t want to strip the grubscrews out and get a huge headache.
Send photo of why
Turn the pulley the other way with the shoulder on the outside. If you can’t, send photo why not.
It’s likely something else is amiss

So much this. Didn’t believe it since I have no less than 5 sets of Allen wrenches and Allen sockets. I got to learn how to remove a stripped motor mount bolt. It was a 2.5mm. Wera plus in the pack on every ride now.

Do you mean like this? Won’t this way put too much stress on the motor shaft? I didnt push it in all the way in this picture. In the picture above I had it flipped and pushed in all the way.

Almost flush with the mount bro. Move it in.

I didn’t push it all the way in this picture because it was resisting a little and I just got one off after getting it stuck. Is it okay to put the motor pulley in this way though? With the shoulder on the inside.

I think that IS the shoulder on the outside. It’s just not necked down like they usually are.
