E-bike use

Factory Racing STEALTH is an e-bike-rated compound. Use this pad shape only with the compatible calipers listed here, and match the complete brake setup to your bike and total load.

Rotor compatibility

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.

Compound performance

Factory Racing STEALTH

Quiet braking and control for trail, road and gravel. Its tested profile covers dry and wet braking, lifespan, quietness and heat dissipation.

Factory Racing STEALTH appears as Factory Racing Stealth Purple in the comparison data. Scores are approximate readings from the supplied chart; actual braking and wear depend on your brake setup and riding conditions.

Approximate ratings out of 10 from the supplied Factory Racing compound chart. Higher ratings indicate stronger performance in that category; a higher quietness rating means quieter braking.

Compound testing

Factory Racing STEALTH: braking power

These pads use a steel backing plate. The ratings shown on this page describe the Factory Racing STEALTH friction compound.

The graph compares pad compounds and backing-plate configurations, all tested with the Shimano XT RT86 rotor.

Why some curves stop earlier

Each test run stopped when the measured caliper temperature reached 120°C, the stopping threshold used to protect the piston seals in this test setup. The horizontal axis shows rotor temperature. Sintered’s shorter curve means the caliper reached the limit at a lower rotor temperature.

About this test

This chart compares braking power for bedded-in pads, all tested with the Shimano XT RT86 rotor. The horizontal axis shows rotor temperature (°C); the vertical axis shows braking power (W). Each curve represents the compound and backing-plate configuration named in the selector. Compare curves within their plotted ranges; no result is shown beyond the end of a curve.

Follow the Factory Racing Stealth Purple curve for the STEALTH compound. In the Shimano XT RT86 rotor comparison, its highest plotted output was approximately 1,030 W. Values are approximate reconstructions from the supplied graph. This result describes the tested pad and rotor setup, not a maximum power rating or a fitment test.

Test context: All pads shown can be good choices for their intended use when correctly matched to the bike and rotor, installed and bedded in. A lower or shorter curve does not by itself make a pad a poor everyday choice. Real riding temperatures depend on the route, total load, braking technique and setup; this test does not establish a temperature limit for the average rider. Rotor choice can substantially affect braking power, but these results apply to the tested combinations. This comparison does not guarantee the same improvement on another bike or identify one best pad for every rider.

Your questions

About these brake pads

Fitment, materials and performance explained.

What do the performance ratings describe?

These approximate ratings describe the Factory Racing STEALTH friction compound and are read from the supplied Factory Racing chart. Individual pad shapes, backing plates and calipers have not been separately scored. Higher ratings indicate stronger performance in that category; a higher quietness rating means quieter braking.

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 the rotor’s 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.

Can I use these pads on an e-bike?

Yes. Factory Racing STEALTH is an e-bike-rated compound. Use this pad shape only with the compatible calipers listed here, and match the complete brake setup to your bike and total load.

What is included in one pack?

Each pack contains 2 brake pads for one compatible caliper. No pad spring is included. Check the front and rear calipers separately before ordering two packs.

Good bite from new, no bed-in period. These work tremendously well from the first braking cycle.

Hi Lawrence, we're thrilled to hear that you're happy with the brakes right from the start! Thanks for taking the time to share your positive feedback. Enjoy your rides!

Bremsperformance ist okay
Sind aber lauter als die originalen
Magura Sportbremsbeläge obwohl die Bremszangen ausgerichtet worden sind
Habe mehr erwartet schade

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback wir wissen es zu schätzen, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihre Erfahrung zu teilen.

Es freut uns, dass die Bremsleistung passt, aber wir verstehen, wie frustrierend Geräusche sein können, besonders wenn man mehr erwartet hat.

Bei unserem Factory Racing Stealth Belag kommt das Geräusch nicht vom Belag selbst es entsteht durch Vibrationen im Bremssystem. Bremsbeläge sind ein statisches Bauteil: Die Bremskraft wird vom hydraulischen System erzeugt, und der Belag steuert, wie diese Kraft auf die Bremsscheibe übertragen wird. Wenn im System eine kleine Unregelmäßigkeit vorhanden ist, kann das zu Resonanzen führen genau das ist das Geräusch, das Sie hören.

Auch wenn der Bremssattel ausgerichtet wurde, können häufige Ursachen sein: ungleichmäßig arbeitende Kolben, leichte Verunreinigungen auf der Bremsscheibe, eine ungleichmäßige Reibschicht (Transfer Layer) oder Luft im System. Der Stealth Belag ist darauf ausgelegt, leise zu laufen, zeigt aber wie alle leistungsstarken Beläge kleinste Setup-Abweichungen sehr deutlich.

Wenn Sie möchten, hilft Ihnen unser Werkstatt-Team gerne mit ein paar schnellen Checks, damit die Bremse so leise läuft, wie sie soll melden Sie sich einfach bei uns
