Claim:
1. A disc brake, comprising: a mounting member fixed to a non-rotating portion of a vehicle and formed over an outer circumferential side of a disc; a caliper arranged on the mounting member so as to be movable in an axial direction of the disc; a pair of friction pads mounted movably to the mounting member so as to be pressed against both surfaces of the disc by the caliper; and return springs made of a metal plate respectively arranged between the pair of friction pads and the mounting member, for biasing the pair of friction pads in a return direction in which the pair of friction pads are separated away from the disc, each of the return springs having a base end side and a distal end side, the base end side being fixed to a back plate of each of the pair of friction pads, and the distal end side being elastically brought into abutment on the mounting member side at a position on an outer side in a disc radial direction relative to the base end side and on an inner side of the friction pads in a disc circumferential direction relative to the disc circumferential end of the friction pad.
