I like my brakes to be set up so that it requires as little lever throw as possible (especially the rear). I have avid elixir cr's and bled them a few times last night following the manual and tips here from another thread; but even with dialing all the adjustments it still requires more throw than I would like. They are not squishy so I don't think it is an issue of air, but rather I think I need to add more fluid into the system to achieve this.
My question is if I use something thinner than the caliper block provided (or maybe bleed them with pads in on the disks?) will this allow me to get more fluid into the system to achieve the result I'm looking for? Also, would I have to do a full bleed or could I add fluid and bleed from the top or bottom?
