Abstract

The present invention refers to a disc brake having a brake caliper, which overlaps at least one brake disc, and a brake actuation mechanism having an amplification mechanism including a brake lever being rotatable around a pivot bearing for introducing a clamping force from an actuator, the brake lever having an arm extending between its actuator connection means and its transmission means, a thrust element in connection with said transmission means for transmitting the amplified clamping force onto the brake disc, in which the brake lever comprises a recess between its actuator connection means and its transmission means, which recess is traversed by the axis of said pivot bearing.
