Good quality and only place I could find pack of 4 rather than them.coming in 2's at double the price 😆
Great so far! Stop exceptional and low noise.

Riding recommendation
Gorilla Brakes recommends NRS ONE for lighter riders and light use. It does not recommend this soft organic compound for e-bikes, enduro, downhill or heavier riders. For e-bike riding, Gorilla Brakes recommends the Enduro Pro and Factory Racing brake pad ranges. Match the pad shape and complete brake setup to your bike and its total load.
Rotor compatibility
This compound is suitable for all bicycle disc brake rotor types, including rotors marked “resin pads only”.
Rotor diameter and thickness must meet your brake manufacturer’s specifications. Check rotor condition and minimum permitted thickness before fitting new pads.
Compound performance
NRS ONE
A soft organic compound for lighter riders, XC, light trail and everyday riding, with smooth, predictable braking control.
Braking feel, noise and wear depend on your brake setup, rotor, installation and riding conditions. Follow the brake manufacturer’s fitting and bedding-in instructions.
Heat management
Aluminium or steel backing plates?
NRS ONE combines stainless-steel backing with an integrated spring in a one-piece assembly. The compound guidance describes the soft organic friction material.
Fitting and bedding in
Follow the installation guide for your braking system, then complete the recommended bedding-in procedure before normal riding.

Your questions
About these brake pads
Fitment, materials and performance explained.
What is different about NRS ONE’s construction?
NRS ONE combines the stainless steel backing and spring in an integrated assembly with two friction pads. This makes the pads easier to handle during fitting. Use the correct model for your caliper and follow the brake manufacturer’s installation instructions.
How do I check that these pads fit my brakes?
Match the exact caliper model and existing pad shape to the compatibility table on this page. Do not rely on the brake lever name or series alone. Check the front and rear calipers separately, because some systems use different pad shapes at each end.
Which rotors can I use with this compound?
This compound is suitable for all bicycle disc brake rotor types, including rotors marked “resin pads only”. Rotor diameter and thickness must meet your brake manufacturer’s specifications. Check rotor condition and minimum permitted thickness before fitting new pads.
How should I fit and bed in NRS ONE pads?
Use the NRS ONE model specified for your caliper and follow the brake manufacturer’s installation and bedding-in instructions. Check that the pads and retaining hardware are correctly seated before riding.
Is NRS ONE recommended for e-bikes or demanding riding?
Gorilla Brakes recommends NRS ONE for lighter riders and light use. It does not recommend this soft organic compound for e-bikes, enduro, downhill or heavier riders. For e-bike riding, Gorilla Brakes recommends the Enduro Pro and Factory Racing brake pad ranges. Match the pad shape and complete brake setup to your bike and its total load.
What comes in one pack?
One pack contains two friction pads for one caliper, with the stainless steel backing and spring integrated into the NRS ONE assembly. A separate loose pad spring is not supplied. Order two packs for front and rear only when both calipers use this exact pad fitment.
Can I return used NRS ONE backplates for recycling?
Yes. Gorilla Brakes offers £10 credit on your next order when used NRS backplates are returned through its recycling programme. A free return label is available on request. Credit is processed after the return is received; the programme’s conditions apply.
