• If they have been poorly bled, and there is air in the system then they can feel a bit spongy after air travel. (My experience with MTB levers). But they'll be fine by the time the bike is reassembled and the levers pulled a couple of times. Just make sure you put pad spacers in when you take the wheels out! I'd feel pretty confident in hydros for touring, especially a nice new set.

    You can isolate the reservoir - where the air is - from the caliper and hoses by elastic banding the leavers closed with some pad spacers in the calipers.
