ABSTRACT:
A center-pull type calliper brake for a bicycle, which has at the utmost ends of a pair of brake arms pivoted to a fixing arm, holders which are integral with the brake arms for respectively fixing brake shoes. The fixing arm extends from its horizontally intermediate portion upwardly in the pulling direction of a control wire so as to form an extension. The extension has a slot extending along the same. A fixed bolt is inserted into the slot and is adjusted therethrough in its fixed position to fix the fixing arm to the bicycle frame in relation of being adjustable vertically in position. When the position of the fixing arm fixed to the bicycle frame changes with respect to a wheel rim, the fixing arm is vertically adjusted in its fixed position, that is, the brake as a whole is vertically adjusted only, so that the brake shoes may be simply adjusted in proper positions with respect to the wheel rim without the necessary for changing the distance between each brake shoe and the pivot position of each brake arm to the fixing arm.
