It will if you stamp on it.

Use both, it takes a bit of finesse to use the rear well, but it's a good chunk of stopping power especially on a bike with only one disc up front.

If it's not used much it'll be a bit 'bitey' until it's properly bedded in & the surfaces are clean, after that it's pretty predictable.
