I have got fitted the Chinese Pazzo style levers... they're shorty version.. which may play a factor. I went straight on-line last night and bought new pads for the front as a precaution...

Lever is consistent, so not an 'air' thing....

Just wondering really if anyone else has noticed theirs being rubbish ?
Bleed them anyway still makes huge diffrence and i run brembo carbon ceramic pads and its stop on a penny also try degresasing youre disk incase something is on it
