I thought I remember reading on of the brake threads where this was mentioned, but of course I can't find it.
Problem:
Rear pedal will lose resistance and be soft when I press it after many miles of non-use. 1 full press and then the pedal firms up for the second press, rear brakes work as expected. After awhile (20 minutes?) the pedal will be soft again. After an overnight sit, the rear pedal is really soft, but on full cycle and it's good.
Tried:
Full bleed, but I may not have got the SMC tilited up as far as it should be.
Not losing fluid, pads are still plenty thick.
Front brakes are fine, not losing feel there. Back brakes are good too, once they get pumped up. Is there a valve in there somewhere leaking?
TIA,
T
