Assuming it's not 'spongy' due to trapped air of course.
I'm pretty sure it's not trapped air (it doesn't feel spongy). I assume that the point of braided hoses is that a rubber hose would expand with the pressure of the brake fluid but the braided hoses would prevent this from happening?
I didn't think that it would change the level travel that much.
Thanks for the recommendation.
