That's not bad given the price of pads. Last time I bled them I followed the instructions of whatever video I was watching, pretty sure I equalised pistons.... had no idea about the plummers lube!

Hunters Silicone Lube is what hope recommend. Comes in a 30ml bottle. Dont know if any silicone lube will do and whether they picked this as doesnt contain any seal degrading additives. Just used it this morning to get the pistons on my X2s moving, one piston was locked solid. The Hope tech films show how.

Assuming the front brake doesnt just need a bleed, Hope do an excellent brake service for c.£45. Brake will come back with new pads, seals, bled. Working like new.
Assume you have followed instructions on equalising pistons and cleaning pistons with the plumbers lube they recommend?
