Woah dude be careful, New brake pads take some time to bed in before they give optimal performance just take it easy.

Saying that if the lever is coming right back to the bar you might well have air in the system still. Sounds like the garage might not have bled the brakes properly.

If your not happy take it back and get them to sort it, Alternatively you can do it yourself its not hard to do. It just takes a bit of time and patience.

Have a search through the site, bleeding brakes has been covered a few times.

Cheers, I'll have a look through Fizzwheel, though it should be for the garage to do. He did mention that I might need a new caliper though.
