For all the Campagnolo Ekar users out there, these awesome light weight brake pads by Gorilla brakes work brilliantly in all weathers. Stoppies or especially good with these pads 👌
Hi Daz,
Thank you for the brilliant review and for trusting Gorilla Brakes on your Campag setup
The Campagnolo Ekar system deserves a pad that matches its performance, so it’s great to hear the Factory Racing Titanium pads are delivering in all weathers. Lightweight backing plates combined with stealth compound they really do sharpen up bite and modulation and we’ll take “stoppies especially good” as a proper field test result

So good I bought them again
Hi Gary,
Thank you for coming back to us — that’s the best feedback we can get 🙌
We’re really pleased to hear the Hope sintered pads delivered well enough that you bought them again. That compound is built for consistent power, heat control, and durability in demanding conditions, so it’s great to know they’re doing exactly what they should.

Great pads. Great price. Now my go to pads.
Hi Nicolas,
Thank you for the great review and for making Gorilla Brakes your go-to pads 🙌
We’re really pleased to hear the Shimano Enduro Pro Ultimate pads are delivering the performance you expect. That compound is built for maximum control under heavy braking loads, with consistent power and heat management when things get steep and fast.
