Your questions

About these brake pads

Fitment, materials and performance explained.

Is Ceramic the same compound as Enduro Ceramic?

No. This listing uses standard Ceramic, an everyday option from the Gorilla Brakes Performance range for XC, road, gravel and commuting. Enduro Ceramic is a separate compound aimed at warmer, dry rides.

How do I check that these pads fit my brakes?

Match the exact caliper model and existing pad shape to the compatibility table on this page. Do not rely on the brake lever name or series alone. Check the front and rear calipers separately, because some systems use different pad shapes at each end.

Which rotors can I use with this compound?

This compound is suitable for all bicycle disc brake rotor types, including rotors marked “resin pads only”. Rotor diameter and thickness must meet your brake manufacturer’s specifications. Check rotor condition and minimum permitted thickness before fitting new pads.

Do new brake pads need bedding in?

Yes. Follow the installation guide and complete the recommended bedding-in procedure before demanding riding. Bedding in prepares the new friction material and establishes an even transfer layer on the rotor.

Which compound does Gorilla Brakes recommend for e-bikes?

Gorilla Brakes positions standard Ceramic in its Performance range for conventional bicycles. For e-bike riding, Gorilla Brakes recommends the Enduro Pro and Factory Racing brake pad ranges. Match the pad shape and complete brake setup to your bike and its total load.

What is included in one pack?

Each pack contains 2 brake pads and 1 pad spring for one compatible caliper. Check the front and rear calipers separately before ordering two packs.

Delivered quickly. Ordered as spare and regular suppler had no stock of X2 pad. Not tested yet so can't comment on performance.

Hi Mark, thanks for your feedback! Glad to hear your order arrived quickly. We hope the pads perform well when you get a chance to test them. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
