I have a 2005 C'Dale r700, it has the Theta C'dale brakes, and I was out on a ride yesterday with some ~25mph decents, I am about 230lbs and was riding with a guy about 170ish...(if I had to bet) any how, on these decents I am grabbing all the brakes I can F & R to slow down for turns, stop signs etc. and not getting a very good response, I am flying by my riding partner(DA brakes)...on to my point I know my weight and high center of gravity on a 63cm bike are contributing factors, but are these brakes just rebadged hooey or could I just get some better pads. Or would some 105 or ultegra brakes make a better investment. Thanks.
