Default 49mm dual disc thought

know theres a few threads discussing switching out fork lowers to fatbobs to be able to run dual front disc set up

anyone consider (or do preferably with some feedback, pics, etc) just tig welding caliper tabs to the existing right leg?

considering this on mine since no need to redo spacers, etc to adapt the fatbob stuff, plus I made a forkbrace for mine that bolts to the fender tabs, and id rather not lose ability to mount that (Someone told me that the fatbob has a different fender support setup)

Any thoughts?
