    So these pads are much larger hopefully plus having a piston behind each pad must be better braking

    Well to be honest, I have been worrying about doing all this to my bike, as I only use it for small trips. sometimes occasionally a bit further, no offence to you saneagle I appreciate your help too. But this sounds a much easier option for me. so its still wire cable. but the calipers are...
