Compatible with all Magura 4-piston calipers using Type 9.1, 9.P, and 9.C pads —
engineered for ultra-quiet braking and instant bite 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 refined lever feel, near-silent braking, and
maximum initial bite in dry conditions.
These pads are mechanically compatible with trail, enduro, downhill, cargo,
utility, and e-MTB braking systems. Due to the extremely soft racing compound,
pad wear will be significantly faster than other Factory Racing 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 long pad life or heat resistance

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.
Not used but ready when I need to - bought through recommendation of the "Ribble Cyclist" on YouTube - when looking for alternatives to original fittings - he rates Gorilla very highly through actual usage. Great price.
Hi Steve,
Thanks for the kind reveiw, We noticed you purchased sintered which is a full metal compound and can be very noisy on brakes if not set up correctly especially if you have been running organic on the rotors. best suited compound for road and gravel are Semi-metalllic or Ceramic if you want quiet braking performance get in contact with us and we can upgrade you free of charge if you like
