Welcome to the forum. Check this section out DIY Home Built Motorized Bicycle (non kit) - Bicycle Motor at Motorized Bicycle Forum I think there's some stuff there about a clutch for a friction drive. I bet someone with more diy bikes will chime in with the info you need. Lots of motorized bicycle enthusiasts on this site. Glad you joined us......................
