Abstract
The brake disclosed herein provides a linear brake kinematic over a wide range of wheel rim sizes. The brake provides for the same brake feel and response to the rider throughout actuation of the brake lever. Also, the brake feel and response may be designed to be the same even if a different wheel rim size is mounted to the bicycle. In an aspect of the brake, this is accomplished by forming a curved configuration, namely, a cam profile on upper portions of left and right brake arms. These upper portions of the left and right brake arms extend away from the wheel so that the cam profiles formed in the upper portions of the left and right brake arms may be made as long as necessary to accommodate the wide range of rim sizes.
