Hi folks,
Own a Cannondale Caadx 2012. Bike came with Tektro canti's and to be honest the brakes don't inspire at 10mph let alone when i am approaching the 40mph mark on downhills. Time for an upgrade for the front brake at least anyway. Here is the bike spec from manufacturer:

Background:
I am running the bike as a roadie at the moment. Dropped the bars, changed out the rear cassette for Ultegra 11-28 for a bit more top end, fitted RS-30's with Pasella tourguards and find the bike pretty much flies. The problem though is stopping.
Anything in the Shimano range?? Also if a bike has canti's do you have to stick with that type of brake or can you use something like a Shimano calliper like the ultegra or r650 57mm??
Thanks in advance.
