ABSTRACT:
A disc brake for a bicycle or the like, which is provided with two arms opposite both surfaces of a disc rotatable with the bicycle wheel, which arms are pivotally supported to a fixed member to be freely swingable with respect thereto and shiftable toward the disc and carry pads directly attached to the arms. At least one of the arm and fixed member is formed of a recess which has a tapered face and receives a rolling member, such as a ball, into the recess. When the arms swing the rolling member rolls along the tapered face so that the arms may be shifted toward the disc and the pads be brought into contact with the disc to thereby exert the braking action.
