You may want to try typing your request in plain english, complete with punctuation, instead of internet gibberish for starters.

Also telling us which brand and model of brakes are on the bike would help immensely. It's hard to read minds from here....

Before you go upgrading/changing out the brakes, make sure they are properly adjusted. We may be able to help with the adjustment if you provide more info as BCRider mentioned.

I have some cheap Tektro Aquila mechanical disc brakes, which were pretty weak when I first got the bike. Took me a pretty long time figuring out how to adjust them properly (first experience w/discs), but they now perform pretty well.

If you only have 6" size disc's, then upgrading to an 8" with new pads and adapter of course, will help stopping power with less energy. Cost for both 8" disc & adapter is about $65, do not forget to clean disc with 99% isopropenol (sp) alcohol to prevent squeeling, and better grip.

Your spelling has improved too. Next up: Punctuation.
