Gah, my brakes had been lacking power recently. I finally got round to buying a bleed kit, and this morning set about bleeding both brakes. It took me ages as it was my first time, and I had to take the rear caliper off the frame.
The old brake fluid came out looking very discolored, so I was hopeful a good replace of the fluid and then bleed would have helped.
Alas, they still feel terrible.
I'll try changing to brand new rotors and pads tomorrow ....
