Magura Brake Pads Engineered for Modern E-Bike Power
Magura brakes are trusted across E-MTB, hybrid and high-performance electric bikes for their strong bite, powerful control and excellent modulation. From the legendary MT5 and MT7 systems to the newest 2025 Gustav and Louise brakes, Magura calipers are built to handle steep terrain, heavier e-bike weights and long, demanding descents. Gorilla Brakes compounds are engineered specifically to meet these higher torque and heat demands.
