<p>A bicycle brake apparatus includes a brake arm (18A, 18B) having an upper portion (22A, 22B) and a lower portion (26A, 26B) and a link member (32A, 32B) having an upper portion (34A, 34B) and a lower portion (38A, 38B). The lower portion (26A, 26B) of the brake arm (18A, 18B) and the lower portion (38A, 38B) of the link member (32A, 32B) pivot relative to each other around a common pivot axis (X). A shoe attachment member (42A, 42B) is disposed on the upper portion (34A, 34B) of the link member (32A, 32B), and a link fixing mechanism is provided for fixing the link member (32A, 32B) relative to the brake arm (18A, 18B). The link fixing mechanism includes a fixing shaft (161A, 161B) extending from one of the brake arm (18A, 18B) and the link member (32A, 32B) and a shaft opening (164A, 164B) defined by the other one of the brake arm (18A, 18B) and the link member (32A, 32B) so that the fixing shaft (161A, 161B) extends through the shaft opening (164A, 164B). A diameter of the shaft opening (162A, 164B) is greater than a diameter of the fixing shaft (161A, 161B), and an adjusting member (180A, 180B) is disposed in the shaft opening (164A, 164B). The adjusting member (180A, 180B) defines an adjusting opening (182A, 182B) for receiving the fixing shaft (161A, 161B) therethrough at a position offset from a centre of the shaft opening (164A, 164B). Rotation of the adjusting member (180A, 180B) therefore adjusts the angle and position of the brake shoe (44A, 44B) relative to the brake arm. <IMAGE></p> |
