 Hi there
I've been running 270mm (10.6") for 5 years now - never ever had a problem at all - Its a TSR kit with Black diamond discs and i use Pagid fast road pads - You can lock the front wheels at some silly speeds if you really want to but its never failed to stop and its always drama free.

I'm adding to that;
Your brakes can never be too good!

I was wondering about why you think they are too much...
If you want to get rid of the setup let me know!
