Quick release mechanism for a bicycle brake

摘要

A quick release mechanism for a brake of a bicycle is contrived such that an operating section can be reliably moved to a closed position when a drive member is operated while the operation section is in a released position. The quick release mechanism (30) comprises an operating lever (32) and a contact section (36). The operating lever (32) can be operated by being toggled between a closed position and to a released position that is separated from the closed position. The contact section (36) is provided on the operating lever (32) and contrived to contact a left crank (8) serving to drive the bicycle when the operating lever (32) is in the released position. After the contact section (36) contacts the left crank (8), an operation of the left crank (8) causes the operating lever (32) to move from the released position to the closed position.
