Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a disk brake system comprising a wheel defining a rotational axis, a caliper mounted adjacent the wheel, and a rotor mounted for rotation with the wheel and engageable by the caliper. The rotor includes a mounting slot defined by first and second sidewalls, the first sidewall defining a first axis that substantially intersects the rotational axis, and the second sidewall defining a second axis that is substantially parallel to the first axis. Preferably, the mounting slot defines a center axis that intersects a radial axis of the wheel at an angle of at least 1.5 degrees, preferably at least 2.0 degrees and more preferably about 2.5 to 3.9 degrees. Preferably, the mounting slot has a width and a length that is at least 10% larger, preferably at least 15% larger, and more preferably about 20% larger than the width.
