Drum Brakes

Hi,

I just got a Worksman cruiser with front and rear drum brakes. They seem to not work as well as regular caliper brakes. I did adjust them and they stop okay in most applications but, I am worried if I was really going (I am 400lbs), they might not stop.

Is there a break in period? Do I have an unrealistic expectation of drum brakes?

Thanks,
Ookiihito
