Have you got the wrong adapter on or something and they're not grabbing much of the rotor?
Or as Andy says, back off cable tension and wind the pads in, maybe the braking you can feel through the lever is the swing arms bottoming out and not the pads hitting the rotor fully, although I didn't think there was enough adjustment for that.
