A disc brake of the type including a pair of friction pads mounted on opposite sides of a rotatable disc, a stationary supporting member supporting the friction pads for directly receiving the braking torque from the friction pads, and a caliper supported on the supporting member and being slidable thereon for applying the friction pads against the opposite sides of the disc. The supporting member has a pair of arm portions spaced in the direction of the circumference of the disc and straddling respectively the disc for supporting and guiding the friction pads, a mounting portion disposed at one side of the disc and adapted to be mounted on a non-rotatable part of a vehicle and extending between the arm portions, and a beam portion interconnecting the arm portions and extending in a circumferential groove formed in the outer circumference of the disc.
