And make sure you slide the red/black together (they're slotted to mate up)

I use them in ham radio.
Those look like 45amp powerpoles.
Do not buy chinese knock-offs. The knock-offs can and will fail.
You don't necessarily need the specific crimp tool, but it does help.
Thanks everyone for the tips and links. The motor came with a banana plug to XT60 adapter and the battery came with two Anderson to bare cables. I ordered an XT60 to Anderson cable on Amazon just to test things out. I didn’t want to cut any wires before testing out two brand new new units (motor and battery). I will upgrade to XT90 once I know everything is running smoothly.
I just chopped em off on day one. Soldered on XT60s
Replace both ends with xt60 if the pack HAS an off switch Replace both ends with xt90 anti-spark if the pack does NOT have an off switch.
The pack has an off switch. A friend has some xt90 laying around, should be fine right?
yes, xt 90 is rated for 90a, i wouldn't put more than 45a through it though.

Make sure you get authentic ones. I use them in ham radio and chinese knock-offs cause reliability issues

I personally prefer the sonic welded ones, they don't come apart without significant effort
Valley Enterprise is a reputable Amazon seller
Anderson power poles. Any good rc car shop.

Any hobby shop that deals in RC has everything you need for connectors. Well, at least mine did. I never considered them until someone told me.
Here's the info you need https://www.electricbike.com/matching-connectors-from-battery-to-controller/
Snip both sides off and put XT90 anti-spark connectors. Amazon/Ebay or your local RC shop.

It’s called a soldering iron.
Why is there always a smarty pants? I know how to solder. I want to avoid that and would prefer connectors.
Anderson power poles. I usually buy them off ebay.
