A caliper body has a first elongated vehicle-side element facing a first braking surface, a second elongated wheel-side element facing a second braking surface opposite to the first braking surface, each having at least one thrust seat receiving a thrust device biasing at least one brake pad against the braking surfaces, and at least one caliper bridge connecting the first elongated vehicle-side element to the second elongated wheel-side element. The caliper body has caliper fixing elements connecting the caliper body to a vehicle mount, the caliper fixing elements being at least three in number and distributed along the first elongated vehicle-side element. The first elongated vehicle-side element and second wheel-side element may have each at least two pad seats, each receiving at least one brake pad and at least two opposite abutment elements abuttingly receiving a brake pad for relieving the braking action on the caliper body.
