See I was thinking on the lines of Duncan but now tony puts the science in to it that now makes sense, the old Sierra ones worked really well on my gbs, think I won the northweald day in that, it had a lot of feel, this one you don’t get the same feel from it, might give marks idea a go and change the pads and see if that helps.

A change of pads transformed my brakes and was very cheap, so well worth trying to start with :)

Thanks for the science Tony. I know there's more to getting the perfect brake set up than meets the eye, and you can spend a fortune and end up with an unbalanced and less effective set up. I'm reluctant to change mine as it works well, but if I could buy alloy replacements for my standard callipers, I would tempted :D
