Hi Kelly , it sounds like you need to do a full strip of the front caliper ( keep more air out of the system / one or more pistons on my front caliper are somewhat sticky ) It will transform your front brake by changing the seals, even though the old seals may appear fine . Take it from me i've been there, i wasted weeks trying to find out why i had a soft front brake lever, changed my lines and even pulled the caliper apart to have it crack tested . And the only reason i didn't change the seals, because every time i pulled the caliper apart the seals looked like new, they were the cause of all my troubles . Anyway if your thinking of going down the seal change route, this should save you some money, see below .
