There's a lot of travel in my brake levers before the pads bite the rotor, the levers nearly hit the handlebar when fully compressed.

This is a brand new groupset/ bike so I would be pissed off if I have to bleed it. Is there a simpler method?

rim brakes are so much easier

You can probably solve that by adding a bit more brake fluid to the system. No need for a full bleed.

This shouldn't really work. Or rather, without ninja level bleed tricks I don't understand why it would do anything.
