Brake caliper for a bicycle

A brake caliper for a bicycle, comprising:

• a housing configured to be installed on the bicycle, the bicycle including a disc attached to a wheel of the bicycle, the housing including a bleed port;
• a brake pad configured to move between a braking position and a non-braking position, the braking position being a location in the housing where the brake pad contacts the disc in a state where the housing is installed on the bicycle, and the non-braking position being a location in the housing where the brake pad is further from the disc than the braking position in a state where the housing is installed on the bicycle;
• and
• a biasing member configured to bias the brake pad within the housing in a direction away from the bleed port in the non-braking position;
• wherein:
• the housing comprises:
• a first housing wall that is located in the direction away from the bleed port relative to the brake pad;
• and
• a second wall that is located in a direction toward the bleed port relative to the brake pad;
• and
• a brake-pad-facing surface of the biasing member is convexly shaped so that the biasing member contacts both the second housing wall and the brake pad while also maintaining a space between the biasing member and the second housing wall.

A brake caliper for a bicycle, comprising:

• a housing configured to be installed on the bicycle, the bicycle including a disc attached to a wheel of the bicycle;
• a first brake pad installed within the housing, the first brake pad configured to contact the disc in a state where the housing is installed on the bicycle, the first brake pad comprises:
• a first friction member;
• and
• a first support member, the first support member having a first extension portion extending beyond the first friction member in a direction parallel to a radial direction of the disc;
• a second brake pad installed within the housing, the second brake pad configured to contact the disc in a state where the housing is installed on the bicycle, and the second brake pad being provided in an opposite side from the first brake pad with respect to the disc, the second brake pad comprises:
• a second friction member;
• and
• a second support member, the second support member having a second extension portion extending beyond the second friction member in a direction parallel to the radial direction of the disc;
• and
• a biasing member contacting the first extension portion of the first brake pad and the second extension portion of the second brake pad simultaneously, the biasing member configured to bias both the first brake pad and the second brake pad in a same direction parallel to a rotational direction of the disc,
• wherein:
• the housing comprises a housing wall;
• and
• a brake-pads-facing surface of the biasing member is convexly shaped so that the biasing member contacts the housing wall, the first extension portion, and the second extension portion to bias both the first brake pad and the second brake pad in the same direction parallel to the rotational direction of the disc while also maintaining a space between the biasing member and the housing wall.
