Compatible with TRP Spyre, Spyre C / SLC / MTN, HY-RD, Hylex (post-mount), Slate X2, Spyke, and related SP10.11 / A10TS pad-shape calipers — engineered for ultra-quiet braking and refined lever feel rather than pad longevity.
Gorilla Brakes Factory Racing Organic Pads use an ultra-soft, non-metallic organic racing compound bonded to a silver back plate. This compound is designed to deliver instant bite, smooth modulation, and near-silent braking performance in dry riding conditions.
These pads are mechanically compatible with road, gravel, cyclocross, commuting, and e-bike braking systems. Due to the extremely soft racing compound, pad wear will be significantly faster than other Gorilla Brakes compounds, especially in wet, gritty, or abrasive conditions.
⚠ Important Usage Information
Optimised for dry weather riding
Extremely fast wear in wet, muddy, gritty, or winter conditions
No bedding-in process required — full braking performance immediately
Not designed for riders prioritising pad longevity or heat resistance

Best brake pads i have ever used i had gorilla pads in the front and shimano in the rear i had massive brake fade 2 weeks ago in the rear wheel but the gorilla pads in the front held me all the way down those big hills for the rest of the day i have just fitted gorilla in the back brake plus they dont wear down half has much has most good brands they are worth the money
Superb. Replaced my stock disc pads mid race in Poland in an extremely lumpy ultra bike packing race. And the feel and stopping power are exceptional. Carried me to 5th place. I’ll be back for more. For sure
