How does it work? will it automaticly shift for you? Does the spring and the tension of the belt have something to do with it?

Joe,
This is the 1st prototype of 3 planned. It is the simplest of the 3; a 1 speed. The clutch has 2 parts (hub and bell) that are independant (hub is fixed to shaft and bell spins free on a bush) at idle and together w/ engaged. When the motor is revd it spins the clutch to engage shoes to the bell via centrifugal force so that the bell is required to spin w/ the shaft. Voiala! you cruise down the road. This bike is gear for about 5-40 mph so some pedaling is required on the start!

so that doesnt have a clutch that you need to hold to keep it from stalling, all you need to do is give it gas?

That's right. It's a centrifugal (automatic) clutch
