The invention relates to a braking system and braking system provision method and in particular relates to a braking system and braking system provision method for braking systems of road vehicles. Disclosed is a braking system for a vehicle, comprising: a rotatory braking element that is fixedly connected to a wheel or wheel hub in a manner to rotate conjointly with the wheel, a stationary braking element that is fixedly connected to a vehicle chassis, a brake actuator that is configured to actuate the stationary braking element such as to press the stationary braking element towards the rotatory element, a lever that is configured such that it transfers a force exerted by the brake actuator to the stationary brake element, wherein a pivot axis of the lever is in parallel with a rotational plane of the rotatory braking element and perpendicular to a horizontal caliper plane that is a plane that is oriented tangentially of the rotatory brake element and an actuator axis is in parallel with the rotational plane and the horizontal caliper plane.
