ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved ring braking surface for vehicle and structure for mounting the same significantly increases performance and reliability. The braking surface has a host of cleaning holes passing therethrough, which allow dirt to clear from the brake. The mounting arrangement allows differential thermal expansion of the braking ring and the hub for engaging a rim of a wheel whereby problems associated with thermal stress are reduced. This mounting arrangement allows air to move freely, circulate over the braking surface and remove heat. A superior brake pad retraction mechanism allows a generally consistent non-operating brake pad separation due to a predetermined pad separation determined by cooperation of a lock washer slidable in one direction and lockable in the other in combination with a spacer washer which allows a predetermined movement of the lock washer urged in this direction by a spring.
