ABSTRACT:
The subject of the invention is a disc brake of the type with a caliper (1) mounted to slide on a fixed support (5, 30) by means of two pins (3, 4). The caliper incorporates a brake motor (9) which is capable of stressing an inner pad (8) directly and an outer pad (7) via the sliding caliper (1) to engage frictionally with a brake disc (2). According to the invention, the caliper (1) is located without appreciable play between a front stop (26) and a rear stop (27) placed respectively opposite a front end (24) and a rear end (25) of the caliper. Depending on the direction of rotation of the disc (2), one or the other of these stops (26, 27) fixed to the fixed support (5, 30) receives all or some of the forces generated by the pads (7, 8) and transmitted to the caliper (1) with which the pads (7, 8) interact.
