I've already read the manual and used by all known options so I'm looking for constructive help here from more experienced riders and mechanics that can perhaps give me ideas or things to look for or an alternative pad compound that can increase breaking performance.
Pad compound matters more for rim brakes than disc brakes, so the most part disc pads all behave similarly. The main choice exception is Metallic vs Resin pads, Resin have better initial stopping, but are prone to fading in longer braking sections.
The first thing to check is that the pads move as soon as you pull the brake lever. If there's slack in the brake cable, that will explain your issue.
