Hope Gravel Bike Brake Pads

Choose Gorilla Brakes pads for gravel riding with Hope brakes. Choose by the caliper first, then compare compounds for dry tracks, muddy rides and loaded trips. Check the listed Hope model and product compatibility; a shared brake brand does not make pad shapes interchangeable.

Check fitment and compatible models

This collection includes pads for the complete Hope RX4+ gravel platform (both Shimano and SRAM-compatible versions) as well as the Hope RX2 all-road/gravel caliper.

This collection includes Gorilla Brakes pads for Hope’s RX-series gravel calipers.

If your gravel bike uses Hope RX4+ or RX2 calipers, you’ll find the correct pad shape here. Simply choose the compound that best suits your terrain and riding conditions.

Choose your compound

Factory Racing Organic puts braking feel first for dry XC, road and gravel riding, with a quieter, responsive bite. This compound can wear very quickly in wet and muddy conditions. Factory Racing Stealth Purple pairs a steel backing plate with a quieter braking character for trail, road and gravel.

All Enduro Pro and Factory Racing compounds are e-bike rated. For heavy cargo, loaded touring and demanding descents, we recommend Enduro Pro Ultimate Orange or Enduro Pro Semi Metallic Blue in the correct fitment.

Hope Gravel Bike Brake Pads FAQs

A little help with fitment, compounds and getting ready to ride.

How do I select the correct pad for Hope?

Choose by the Hope caliper family, not the Tech lever name alone. Keep the E4/RX4, V4/GR4/TR4 and X2/RX2/XCR pad groups separate. Check the selected product’s exact compatibility before ordering.

Which of the available compounds should I compare?

Factory Racing Organic puts braking feel first for dry XC, road and gravel riding, with a quieter, responsive bite. This compound can wear very quickly in wet and muddy conditions. Factory Racing Stealth Purple pairs a steel backing plate with a quieter braking character for trail, road and gravel.

Which compounds are e-bike rated, and which do you recommend for heavy loads?

All Enduro Pro and Factory Racing compounds are e-bike rated. For heavy cargo, loaded touring and demanding descents, we recommend Enduro Pro Ultimate Orange or Enduro Pro Semi Metallic Blue in the correct fitment.

How should I prepare the rotor and bed in new pads?

Check the rotor’s condition, wear limit and permitted pad material. Follow the installation instructions for your caliper and our bedding-in guide, including rotor preparation when changing compounds.
