ABSTRACT:
An antidive apparatus for a small vehicle including a telescopic front fork having a damping power generating mechanism and a disc brake apparatus for braking a front wheel associated therewith. The caliper assembly of the disc brake is pivotally supported on the axle of the front wheel and is coupled to an actuator of a contraction motion regulating apparatus of the damping power generating mechanism. In a first embodiment, a connecting rod is pivotally fixed to the lower case, is coupled with the caliper assembly about an eccentric coupling and to the actuator such that the coupling between the caliper assembly and the actuator is effected through the control rod. In another embodiment, the caliper assembly is directly coupled to the actuator with the coupling being closer to the front axle than the caliper cylinders are to the front axle.
