[Closed] Recent Hope service - silly question

Just had my Hope mono minis serviced by Hope. Just put them back on the bike and the levers go all the way to the bars before the pads make contact with the disc. It's almost as if the pistons are retracting too far so they have miles to travel before hitting the rotor.

The pads are new I.e. Fat and I am presuming the brakes don't need bleeding due to just being serviced.

Has anyone got any suggests as to how to cure this?

Thanks.

How many times have you squeezed them? Pads are self adjusting. You have to 'cycle' them a few times to move the pads out till they get to their working position.

Maybe they do need bleeding ,just ziptie the levers to the bars overnight if there us any air that will force it out
