I'd figured as much, given the different compounds and all. I just wasn't expecting there to be such a massive difference in stopping power; before swapping the pads both brakes felt exactly the same, yet the front was still underpowered.
Any particular reason to take it to a shop? I'm sure this may be above my level of skill, I'd just rather figure try and fix it myself if possible.
