Abstract
A motorcycle front wheel and disc brake assembly wherein the caliper of the disc brake assembly is supported directly by an axle carrier of the front wheel and is nested between the axle carrier and the front wheel. The caliper assembly is mounted centrally on the axle carrier so as to minimize the length of its supporting bracket and to reduce adverse effects on the suspension and steering of the front wheel.
