ABSTRACT:
A brake force adjuster for a vehicle brake especially for a bicycle brake includes a hanger holding a hanging wire secured with a pair of brake shoes for operatively clamping a wheel rim of a vehicle wheel for braking purpose, an adjustable locking latch resiliently tensioned on the hanger normally frictionally locking a braking wire remotely connected to a brake lever to be operated by a vehicle driver, and a locking bolt locking the braking wire on the hanger. When unlocking the locking bolt and pulling the adjustable locking latch, the hanger may be freely moved along the braking wire for adjusting a clamping force of the braking shoes. After releasing the locking latch, the locking latch will resiliently frictionally lock the braking wire which is then firmly locked by the locking bolt also formed on the hanger. Therefore a brake force adjuster of a vehicle brake can be easily assembled and adjusted.
