Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004085235A1] The invention relates to the incorporation of a disc brake calliper in available locations on a bicycle structure, namely either the front wheel fork or the stays or swing arms of the rear wheel frame. In the hydraulically controlled mode, the detachable calliper (6) and the fork blade (or fork frame) (14) are rigidly interconnected via screws 01 and 02 (12, 13). The hydraulic fluid flows from the hose (11) (which is in turn connected to the brake lever) to the fork blade (or fork frame) via screw 03 (10) then from the fork blade (or fork frame) (14) to the detachable calliper (6) via channel 01 (8). The pressurised fluid actuates the pistons (15), which in turn actuate the brake pads (7). When braking, the pads are urged against the disc. Said disc brake is characterised by improved rigidity, a lighter weight and an enhanced design.
