A disc brake mechanism including a generally annular rotor ring having an outer diameter and an inner diameter, a plurality of teeth extending from the inner diameter of the rotor ring, a generally cylindrical drive shaft head defining a major axis, and a plurality of rounded connection wedges extending therefrom. A pair of brake pads are disposed on opposite sides of the rotor, a caliper is connected to a non-rotating portion of a vehicle, a piston is operationally connected to the caliper and disposed adjacent a brake pad, and a pressure plate is operationally connected adjacent a brake pad and positioned opposite the rotor from the piston. Force members are operationally connected to the brake pads. The plurality of rounded connection wedges defines a generally frusto-spherical shape and further defines a plurality of teeth-engaging slots, while each respective slot is shaped to engage a respective tooth, the force members urge the brake pads away from the rotor ring, and the rotor ring is able to pivot at least about 3 degrees about a point on the major axis.
