The present invention relates to a disc brake operable to apply a clamping force to a rotatable disc. The disc brake includes a support bracket, slide pins coupled to the support bracket, inner and outer brake shoes and a caliper supported by the slide pins. The support bracket is a substantially rectangular frame defining a window. The window is adapted to accept a portion of a disc protruding therethrough. The support bracket includes a pair of spaced apart apertures extending through the frame where each aperture includes a threaded portion and a conical seat extending along an axis aligned to intersect the disc. The slide pins are threadingly engaged with a threaded portion. The slide pins do not extend through the window but protrude outwardly away from the window. Each slide pin has a tapered portion in engagement with one of the conical seats.
