Abstract
A brake mechanism of a bicycle brake is provided with two brake arms each including a bifurcated main body having two opposite, longitudinal through slot members, an insert having a longitudinal through slot and disposed in the main body, and a fastening member driven through the through slot members and the through slot to adjustably fasten the insert and the main body together; and two brake pads each threadedly secured to the insert.
