I thought I did. I’ll push new oil through a couple of times and see if that helps. I don’t need to use it at the moment so giving it time to settle then pushing more oil through might be a good idea.

Look for any high parts of cable where there's turns or mounting brackets and tap them also, working from the caliper to the lever. Oh, front or back or both?
Assume you've read the manual and tilted the calipers etc?

It could possibly feel a bit mushy because the hose is much longer than the front and therefore has much more opportunity to swell when you squeeze the lever. Kevlar hoses will sort that out.
Or measure your levers from the bars you might find that the rear is wound in more and feels like it's pulling further, when in reality it's set at the beginning of the stroke to be closer to the bars.

Do you have the little pot and syringe? Did you unbolt stuff and tilt the levers or bike so it's higher/lower yada yada? We found overfilling it a bit helped with the long lever throw. You can also try tapping the caliper and levers to release trapped air bubbles and tapping the levers too so it helps release any air in the system.
