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.
