hey guys and gals :)

just got new pads,cables and bleeding done to the rear brake on my bike took it out for a spin my bike and noticed that the rear brake had little to no stopping power at average speed

do the new pads need to be worn inare not worn in? any help suggestions would be great
 
new pads have stuff all stopping power , they need to be worn in first
Try going down a hill and putting on the anchors hard at the bottom. Repeat a few times.

to help speed up the process , it might help to wet the brake caliper and rotor before you try the above mentioned process
