Compatible with SRAM Level, RED, Force, Rival, Apex, and Avid 2-piston brake systems — designed 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 engineered to deliver maximum initial bite, refined control, and near-silent braking in dry conditions.
These pads are mechanically compatible with road, gravel, XC, enduro, downhill, and e-MTB braking systems, but due to the extremely soft racing compound, wear rate will be significantly faster than other Factory Racing compounds, especially in poor or abrasive conditions.
⚠ Important Usage Information
Optimised for dry weather riding
Will wear extremely fast in wet, muddy, gritty, or winter conditions
No bedding-in process required — full performance from first use
Not designed for riders prioritising long pad life
