That is something i have never seen on one of these bikes. If it has cut that much away, were has all the alloy gone ?
What are you compairing the front brake to? if its a modern bike forget it you will never get it that good, if its an old brit --what are you complaining about it stops better doesn't it!!In all seriousness a well fettled brake with decent pads should slow you down OK but not be able to squeel the tyre
