Frequently Asked Questions

How do Gorilla Brakes Factory Racing Stealth pads compare to Hope’s stock pads?
Stealth pads deliver quieter braking and smoother modulation than many Hope stock pads. They sit between Organic (soft) and Green (hard) compounds, giving a balance of silence, control, and durability.
Which Hope calipers are Stealth pads compatible with?
Gorilla Brakes Stealth pads are precision-matched for Hope Tech 3/4 V4, E4, RX4, GR4, TR4, and X2 calipers, along with other 2-piston and 4-piston Hope systems. Always check pad shape before ordering.
Are Stealth pads good for Hope-equipped eMTBs?
Yes. The Stealth compound is eBike-ready, designed to handle the higher braking forces of heavier Hope-equipped eMTBs and downhill setups.
How long do Stealth pads last on Hope brakes?
Lifespan depends on terrain and riding style, but Stealth pads are engineered to last longer than organic pads while staying quieter than metallic options. Many Hope riders report excellent durability in V4 / GR4 / TR4 and E4 systems.
Do Stealth pads wear Hope rotors faster?
No — the Stealth medium compound is rotor-friendly, offering strong braking performance without the accelerated rotor wear that metallic pads can cause.
Can I recycle my worn Hope Stealth pads?
Yes. Gorilla Brakes runs a dedicated Brake Pad Recycling Program. You can return used Hope Stealth pads and we’ll recycle them responsibly.
