ABSTRACT:
A caliper brake for a bicycle which includes a pair of fixing bases, brake arms including respective brake shoes and bosses, and return springs, wherein the boss of each brake arm is provided with a cavity in which the return spring is housed. A spring holder for each return spring is rotatably mounted with respect to the associated brake arm boss. Since the relative rotation of the spring holder with respect to the boss is regulated in a predetermined range, the return spring is given a preload, and the spring holder is fixed to the fixing base, each brake arm can be easily assembled with the fixing base.
