Compatible with all Magura 2-piston MT brake systems using Type 7.1, 7.2, and 7.4 pads — engineered for riders who prioritise ultra-quiet braking, refined lever feel, and instant bite in dry riding conditions.
Gorilla Brakes Factory Racing Organic Pads use an ultra-soft, non-metallic organic racing compound bonded to a silver back plate. This compound delivers immediate braking response, smooth modulation, and near-silent operation with no bedding-in required.
These pads are mechanically compatible with Magura XC, trail, and light e-bike systems. However, due to the extremely soft racing compound, pad wear will be significantly faster than standard, Enduro Pro, or sintered compounds — especially in wet, gritty, or abrasive conditions.
⚠ Important Usage Information
Optimised for dry-condition riding
Extremely fast wear in wet, muddy, winter, or abrasive conditions
No bedding-in process required — full performance immediately
Not designed for sustained heat, heavy e-MTB loads, or long alpine descents
The Factory Racing Organic compound is the quietest and fastest-biting pad in the Gorilla Brakes lineup. It is purpose-built for riders who value silence, lever feel, and immediate braking response over pad lifespan or wet-condition durability.
