i'm getting my cc bike ready to sell, and the brakes need to be bled pretty bad...at least i think thats what it is...basically when i squeeze the lever it goes all the way to the handle bars just to get the pads to touch the rotor. i have the pads dialed in pretty close...i've had to get my levers replaced once before because the plunger went out on them, so maguera sent me brand new levers under warranty...so basically what i'm trying to get at here, is do i need to bleed them, or does it sound like the plungers are going out again...and if so, how would i go about finding out...and are magueara brakes as hard to bleed as everyone says they are. the levers are luise levers, and they're about 2 years old
