Abstract
The strength and rigidity of a bicycle brake mechanism is improved by adding a mounting post to an existing brake mechanism. The post has a surface area which is much larger than the surface area of a mounting bolt which extends through a fork crown and which tends to flex. The mounting bolt is accommodated in the mounting post, and the two elements have a rigidity and stability which is far increased over that of the mounting bolt alone.
