New pads are spot on for braking, only concern I have is when it’s wet brakes squeal like nails down a blackboard.
Not sure if it’s because they’re new, only Done 50 miles but still **** of a squeak in wet conditions.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the feedback, and I’m glad to hear the braking performance is spot on.

With resin pads, a bit of noise in wet conditions can happen, especially when the pads are still quite new. At around 50 miles they may still be bedding into the rotor properly, and in the wet you can get a temporary squeal as water, grit and road film pass between the pad and rotor.

A few things to check:

Make sure the caliper is aligned correctly and the rotor is running clean through the pads.

Avoid using strong cleaners or bike wash directly on the braking surface, as this can interfere with the transfer layer on the rotor.

After washing or riding in heavy rain, do a few firm controlled stops to put some heat back into the pads and dry the system out.

The important part is that the pads are braking well, so it does not sound like a power issue. Wet-weather squeal is normally vibration rather than the pad itself being faulty, but keep an eye on it as they get a bit more use.

If it continues after a few more rides, send us a quick photo of the pads and rotor and we’ll take a look.

Kind regards,
Lee

Who would have thought that swapping out the OE pads would make such a massive difference?!

As soon as these weee bedded in (like, 5 mins tops) the braking was notably improved, I’d say 300% better! And on bog standard Shimano MT200 too. Really appreciated this next time out on the trails.

Lots of advice from the Gorilla Team beforehand and a huge amount of guidance and tips on the site too.

British firm too. Support our growing bike trade guys!

Great quality pads.

The ceramic compound pads are very progressive and powerful, but they remain quiet in all conditions.

By comparison, under the same amount of lever's pressure, these pads stop you with the same power as Shimano sintered equivalent.

I found the pads reliable on trails, at the bike park and on XC courses.

Hi Emanuel,

Really appreciate you taking the time to leave this great to hear how well they’re working across different riding styles.

That progressive feel with strong, consistent power (without the noise) is exactly what we aim for with the Ceramic compound, so it’s spot on that you’re getting that both on trails and at the bike park.

Good comparison with the Shimano sintered too that’s a strong benchmark 👍

Thanks again for the support, and if you ever need anything just give us a shout!

Bought these to replace the expensive Shimano originals. They work better, are compatable with disc materials so no squealing and give you lots of power. Unless you weigh 100Kg plus and are going down Alpe d' Huez the heat dissipation seems just fine.
