Bolt on is fine and will allow you to position the bracket to get the angle spot on, as close to a parallelogram as possible really. I did that with mine and there is a slight amount of dip under braking to give some feel.

If the bracket is bolted higher ,it gives a stiff brake feeling.
If you bolt it lower,it gives the slight amount of dip that coaster says.

Try it and see what suits you better.
This is the very stiff set up.

This is the conversion kit to upgrade your scootrs hydraulic disc brake into anti dive.

The Black bar is to weld onto the fork leg in place of the clamp, though I'ver never seen one fitted where they've used the weld on bracket so I presume that clamp stays put once it's tight?

the weld on one is great once you've decided where you want it. I found that the bolt on one interferes with some aftermarket dampers

Do you mean it does not fit with some dampers as it cant interfere with the damper once it is on as the dampers themselves do not move?

I'd expect that the top bolt heads on the clamp will foul on some fatter dampers depending on the angle that the top damper mount is welded at.

LTH kit has billet arm and bracket but they're not interchangeable with scootrs ones.
