Hi folks!

I have the following concern ..

place a disc brake kit on my lambretta scoot rs

eh seen that there is a version anti dive, I would like to know the difference from the version I put ..

while the braking is very good, I realize that the brake assembly moves too far forward when braking.

that reforms could do to make anti dive?
you can add a bar as seen in the photos .. Is that the only difference?

ok .. but what is the difference?
should drill and add a metal bar attached to the fork?

the bar is rigid or have movement?
the damping function properly in this way?

Absolutely not! The caliper plate needs to be released from the spigot on the inside of the fork link and a bush/bearing fitted at the spindle so the caliper plate can pivot. Bushes/bearings also need to be at either end of the antidive bar.

You need this kit to convert your brake kit to anti dive Roy ....

The small bar is to weld onto the forks and attach the link bar to it or you can just use the clamp. The kit comes with both options.
