Compatible with SRAM Level, RED, and Force 2-piston brake systems (OE pad shape) — designed for riders seeking smooth, quiet braking and consistent power.
Gorilla Brakes Standard Semi-Metallic Pads combine organic and metallic elements for balanced braking performance and reduced noise. They provide stable, predictable stopping power with smooth modulation for road, gravel, and XC conditions. Not recommended for e-bikes due to faster wear rates. Fully REACH-compliant.

🔥 Compound Type: Standard Semi-Metallic (Performance)
The Semi-Metallic Compound delivers smooth, quiet braking with consistent control. It’s rotor-friendly, durable, and ideal for riders who want strong performance without harsh metallic noise or aggressive bite.
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
