Compatible with Tektro Orion, Gemini, and Dorado 4-piston 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 trail, XC, and all-mountain braking systems.
Due to the extremely soft racing compound,
pad wear will be significantly faster than other Gorilla Brakes compounds,
especially in wet, muddy, 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, wet-weather performance, or heat resistance

Applications where instant bite and low noise matter most
Gorilla Brakes is trusted by riders worldwide, with over 13,000 verified positive feedback ratings.
We also work closely with race teams and sponsored riders to validate performance in real-world conditions.
The Stealth compound is a welcome variant of a more regular sintered compound. Same power with the added bonus on low noise, especially in wet conditions.
The bedding process was surprisingly quick as well.
I had a chance to test these pads on local trails without issues. No signs of fading after long downhill braking
