Structure for adjustably attaching a disc brake caliper to a bicycle frame

摘要

An attachment structure for a caliper of a disc brake assembly (10) consisting of a caliper (12) and a rotor (14). The caliper (12) is attached to a wheel supporting portion of a cycle frame (16) which supports a wheel with the rotor (14) fixedly attached to the wheel and the rotor lying in a fixed a plane relative to the supporting portion of the frame. The supporting portion of the frame has a pair of attachment bores (34) oriented to attach the caliper (12) with the rotor (14) received between a pair of brake pads advanced into and out of contact with the rotor (14) by the caliper (12) along a select axis. The attachment structure allows for infinite variation of the angle of incidence between the select axis and the plane of the rotor within a defined range. Attachment bolts (64) secure the caliper (12) to the frame (16) with a select angle of incidence between the select axis and the plane of the rotor. <IMAGE>
