Whole new brake is on its way but I really want to know what’s wrong with this one- or if it’s my technique
At this point I’d be very surprised if it’s your technique. But - there is a trick to these when completing the final bit of work on the lever. It is possible to have it not quite full due to the angle of the lever at the point where the lever is sealed. which then shows itself later when you hit a bump and brake at the same time and it gobbles a load of air in to the line. Have a look at cutaways of the lever reservoir you should be able to visualise how this happens.

Current issue is I can’t get the system to bleed correctly, but I can’t find any leaks. Whole new brake is on its way but I really want to know what’s wrong with this one- or if it’s my technique
