I've moved levers from one bike to another. Had to disconnect the hose for internal routing. Bought new inserts and olives, fitted back together and gone through a full bleed process. When activating the lever it travels all the way to the bar with no resistance at all. What have I done wrong?

If it isn't leaking then there is still air in there.

Road calipers can be a pain to bleed - if you mount the bike in a stand with the calliper right at the bottom and give it a firm tap to dislodge any air bubbles

Also tougher when the hose goes through the frame and you can't tappity-tap it.

What brakes are they?

Have you bled from the caliper up to the levers, to push the bubbles out?
If using Shimano brakes, did you use the bleed funnel?
