Brake Pads For Formula Cura, Cura Road, 2-Piston

Gorilla Brakes disc brake pads are direct-fit replacements for Formula 2-piston Cura calipers, including both Formula Cura MTB and Formula Cura Road systems.

These calipers are used across XC, trail, all-mountain, road, gravel, and CX riding where precise modulation, low noise, and consistent braking feel are critical.

Scroll down to choose the compound that best matches your riding conditions, terrain, and braking loads.

Quick tip: Use the filters below to select Formula and confirm a 2-piston Cura pad shape before choosing a compound. Riders tackling longer descents, higher speeds, or heavier bikes (including e-bikes) may benefit from a higher-heat compound for improved fade resistance and consistent braking.
