ABSTRACT:
A bicycle brake assembly is disclosed for coupling a bicycle brake device onto either front or rear forks of a bicycle by a brake fixing mechanism. The brake fixing mechanism has a fixing member or plate fixedly coupled to either the front or rear forks and a bracing member or plate coupled to the fixing member such that the bicycle brake device is pivotally coupled between the fixing member and the bracing member. The fixing member and the bracing member are rigidly coupled together at their upper ends by a connecting member. In the most preferred embodiment, the fixing member and the bracing member are integrally formed as a one-piece, unitary member from a sheet material. Preferably, the brake device is a cantilever brake with its pivot pins interconnecting the lower ends of the fixing member and the bracing member.
