When they're dry, my brakes stop me quite nicely - beautifully in an emergency stop. But when wet, it can take full application of both brakes much longer to stop, and emergency stops? Pfffft - forget it.

These are Shimano C101 V-brakes, and Aztek pads. Just bought some new pads today, too, and gotta put them on.
