Abstract
A caliper brake assembly comprising a pair of pivotal caliper arms operatively connected to a remote brake lever via a double type control cable consisting of an inner cable and an outer cable, a brake shoe mounted to a lower end of each of the caliper arms, a return spring for urging each of the caliper arms to take its normal release position when the brake lever is in its rest position, the pair of caliper arms being arranged so as to bring the brake shoes into braking contact with the bicycle wheel when the brake lever is operated to pull the inner cable, wherein at least one of the pair of caliper arms has an auxiliary braking element adapted to automatically come into braking contact with the bicycle wheel when the inner cable is freed from tension.
