ABSTRACT:
In a disc brake apparatus mounted to a vehicle wheel supported by a fork member, a caliper body is disposed within a space formed inwardly of the fork member and to one side of the vehicle wheel. The caliper member straddles the brake disc from the internal periphery of the brake disc. A bracket integrally formed with the caliper body extends inwardly therefrom in a radial direction to the axle of the wheel where it is pivotally supported. The caliper body is also coupled by a removable pin with the fork member to prevent rotation about the axle. The caliper body is formed with an opening for permitting removal and replacement of the friction pads through the bottom wall portion thereof and the bracket is also formed with an opening for permitting the pads to be fully removed from the vehicle.
