Also, I run them at 40psi. I do want to get wider tires and know that will make a big difference. I've never been on a bike with V-Brakes that had a decent set of pads that I couldn't lock up the brakes at pretty much any speed, granted I will add that I am a heavy rock climber and have very strong hands, so that does make a difference.
