Abstract
A disc brake includes a brake pad, a retaining spring, and a retaining bracket. The retaining bracket pretensions the retaining spring radially inwardly relative to a rotation axis of a brake against the brake pad. A smallest radial distance (D) of the retaining spring from the brake pad in a region in which the retaining bracket overlaps the retaining spring in a radial direction is greater than a smallest radial distance (d) of the retaining bracket from the brake pad in a region in which the retaining bracket overlaps the brake pad in the radial direction.
